U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has instructed Secretary of the Army Daniel Driscoll to implement a program to transform the U.S. armed forces, including equipping them with long-range missile weapons by 2027, APA reports citing Izvestiya.
The relevant memorandum was published on April 30.
"To accelerate the creation of capabilities to ensure victory in the war, the Secretary of the Army [Driscoll] has been instructed to deploy long-range missiles capable of hitting moving land and sea targets by 2027," the document says on the Pentagon website.
In addition, the Ministry of the Army is ordered to provide each division with unmanned systems by 2026 and increase the capabilities of troops to combat drones. It is also planned to introduce artificial intelligence into operations command and expand the use of 3D printers and other advanced manufacturing methods in the units.
