Lance on M667, U.S – part2

MGM-52 Lance ground to ground, U.S – part1

The MGM-52 Lance was developed to replace the Honest John and Sergeant missiles, the first testing beginning in 1965. Lance entered service in the USA in 1972, and production ended in 1980. There were two versions in service in 1990, the MGM-52B and MGM-52C. It is clear that there will be no direct nuclear warhead Lance successor, as the AGM-131 SRAM-T programme was terminated in 1991, and the role has now been taken over by the conventional HE warhead MGM-140 ATACMS.
