Production of the TPM-1 missile has finally ended following the last batch of TPM-1D5s on order. Conversions of older TPM-1s to upgrade them and also convert them into Canister TPM, air-launched TPM-A and ground-launched TPM-G will continue for a number of years yet.
Ending new build TPM-1s means that the engineering and research teams have now been released. Early work has begun on the TPM-3X with an expected entry into service "before the end of the next decade". TPM-2 has 2 upgrades planned, a minor upgrade for early next year and a more major TPM-2B update perhaps in 2111.
