Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette:

Lockheed Martin is expanding its missile production operations in south Arkansas to support increased production of PAC-3 missiles for the Patriot missile system.

Aerospace industry leaders from Boeing and Aerojet, Gov. Asa Hutchinson and state officials, as well as U.S. Army Brig. Gen. Frank Lozano attended an event Tuesday morning to announce the opening of the new All Round Up III facility in Camden.

“This 85,000 square foot expansion supports increased production capacity for the PAC-3 missile segment enhancement, the world’s most advanced air defense missile,” Camden operations facility site director Aaron Huckaby said.

The PAC-3 MSE program in Camden started in 2014 with the capacity to build 240 PAC-3 MSEs a year, said Brenda Davidson, Lockheed’s vice president of PAC-3 Programs Missiles and Fire Control.
