The Next Generation Missile (NGM),[1] formerly the Joint Dual Role Air Dominance Missile (JDRADM), was a proposed Beyond-visual-range (BVR) air-to-air missile (AAM) capable of all-weather day and night performance, to replace the AIM-120 AMRAAM and AGM-88 HARM.[2][3] It was proposed to be cancelled in the Obama Administration's 2013 budget request.[4] A parallel project, the T-3 (Triple Target Terminator) program has continued.[5][6] The T-3 missile is aimed at three major targets — enemy aircraft, cruise missiles and air defence networks.
