Covenant Unveils Anthem Missile and Plans 12,000 Units a Year

Covenant has emerged from secrecy with Anthem, a ground-launched, long-range cruise missile designed for lower-cost mass production. The Israeli-American defense company says it has raised more than $250 million and secured about $150 million in orders and contracts. Its northern Israel research, development and manufacturing site is planned to produce 2,000 units annually, while plants in Dallas and Saxony are each designed for about 5,000, giving a combined target capacity of 12,000 a year across the three sites. Covenant says Anthem has completed more than 200 flights, and serial production is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2027.
