AMRAAM

Abstract

This joint Navy/Air Force program is structured in response to the Joint Service Operational Requirement and Mission Element Need Statement to develop an air superiority air-to-air missile with significant improvements in operational utility and combat effectiveness. This program supports the integration of the Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM) into Navy aircraft with analysis of Navy unique applications, aircraft missile integration tasks, product improvement efforts including missile software upgrade development and procurement of hardware to support Navy test and evaluation tasks.

• Change Summary Explanation: Technical: Not Applicable Schedule: Delays integrating developmental hardware into flight testing and lower than planned flight test efficiencies extended the completion date for Engineering and Manufacturing Development to September 2009. This resulted in a corresponding change to the forecasted OT start/complete dates. The System DT/OT end date slipped due to flight test execution and resolution of minor system anomalies which resulted in a corresponding slip to the F/A-18 E/F and F/A-18 C/D IOC dates. FY 2011 missile contract award has been moved from March to April per executive service (USAF) schedule decision.
