Canon-cocking artillery Marines in California will kick off the first of two years of experimentation with the Corps’ ship-sinking missile in 2022.

The Marines of 11th Marine Regiment at Camp Pendleton received the Navy-Marine Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System, or NMESIS in late 2021.

That delivery followed a successful movement fire and return of the NSM by brothers-in-arms Marines of 1st Battalion, 12th Marine Regiment, in Hawaii in August.
