Army program aims to defeat multiple battlefield threats simultaneously

April 28, 2026 — REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. (April 28, 2026) – Modern warfare has evolved beyond single threats. Enter MSET. Developed by the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Aviation & Missile Center, Multiple Simultaneous Engagement Technologies, or MSET, addresses the need for increased precision and lethality in close combat and anti-access/area denial environments. “Multiple Simultaneous Engagement Technologies, or MSET, developed missile software applications to enable a single Soldier to form mission plan, execute, and monitor multiple missiles simultaneously engaging single or multiple targets,” said Dr. Shane Thompson, DEVCOM AvMC’s MSET program manager.
