Blackbeard je raketa dometa priblizno 500 milja zamisljena kao jeftino resenje sa cenom do 400 000 $ po komadu.

Prethodnih godina su vrsena testiranja sa demonstratorima.



Ministarstvo odbrane, pardon, rata je vec najavilo zelju za nabavkom 12 000 komada.

Citat:Concurrently, once Castelion achieves testing and validation, the Department will award a two-year multi-year procurement contract for a minimum of 500 Blackbeard missiles annually, with options to extend for up to five years. To further encourage Castelion's self-funded facility expansion, the Department is actively seeking the necessary authorizations and appropriations to purchase over 12,000 Blackbeard missiles over five years.

U.S. Navy Accelerates Blackbeard Hypersonic Missile Toward Early Operational Capability With $90M Award.

Citat:On August 25, 2026, the U.S. Navy awarded Castelion Corp. a nearly $90 million contract to advance its Blackbeard hypersonic strike weapon toward Early Operational Capability (EOC). The award represents another important step in the Navy’s effort to transform advanced hypersonic technology into a deployable, supportable and producible long-range strike capability. Beyond speed, Blackbeard is increasingly significant because its development combines a path toward operational fielding with an emphasis on manufacturability and inventory scale, two factors that will determine whether hypersonic weapons can evolve from limited-inventory capabilities into weapons available at operationally relevant scale. According to the U.S. Department of War’s official contract announcement, the new effort will support the development of 50 EOC weapons and Blackbeard’s transition toward a Navy Program of Record.
