The Typhon system will launch Tomahawk and SM-6 missiles

Hopefully a very long range ballistic missile with MARV capability. At least 4000km range in the future minimum. 5000km would be better.

It’s four MK41 launch cells on a truck. It’s intended to fire Tomahawk and SM-6

The SM-6 will reach 2700km range. I'm hoping they can do better with PRSM. The PRSM missile has a diameter of 24 inches and 13 feet in length. Put about another 2 inches in diameter and another 13 feet with fuel only and it could go far. The Pershing II was claimed to have 1700km range. From Lockheed itself it was 2400km and this missile is about 35 in length and 40 inches in diameter. So you can imagine with missile tech improvements with bigger PRSM that could go further. Limited only to HIMARS and M270s platforms.
