Minuteman II was a second-generation intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) developed by the United States during the Cold War to strengthen its nuclear deterrence posture. Introduced in the mid-1960s, it featured improved range, accuracy, and payload capacity compared to its predecessor, incorporating enhanced guidance systems and pe*******on aids designed to overcome emerging missile defense technologies. Deployed in hardened underground silos, Minuteman II formed a critical component of the U.S. land-based nuclear triad, ensuring a credible second-strike capability. Although later replaced by the Minuteman III, Minuteman II played a pivotal role in maintaining strategic stability and deterrence during one of the most tense periods of superpower rivalry.

Lufthansa Technik has introduced a dedicated upgrade programme for the ACJ318 Elite, aimed at modernising the smallest member of the Airbus A320 family operating in the VIP segment.

The programme offers a comprehensive package of cabin, avionics, and system-level enhancements, combining cosmetic refurbishment with technical upgrades to extend service life and improve operational efficiency.

All modifications will be certified and delivered by Lufthansa Technik’s VIP Center of Excellence in Hamburg, ensuring compliance with the latest regulatory and customer standards while preserving the aircraft’s long-range corporate jet capabilities.

This initiative reflects growing demand for cost-effective modernisation solutions in the high-end business aviation market, allowing operators to refresh existing platforms without transitioning to entirely new aircraft.
