The concept envisioned a continuation of the Assault Breaker program's innovations in creating "smart" and highly accurate weapons, which were needed to stop Soviet tanks and mechanized units in the event of a Red Army offensive in Europe.
It should be noted that when planning to contain the superior Soviet army in Europe, the American military relied on the help of aircraft and bomb systems that could independently detect and destroy Soviet equipment. Accordingly, a total of 20 missiles were needed on each bomber.
The intention to revive the Assault Breaker program is linked to the success of Russia and China in the military field. According to data, the creation of the missile system could take nearly ten years./.
