Small Diameter Bomb (SDB)

Abstract

Small Diameter Bomb Increment II (SDB II) is an ACAT 1C joint Department of the Air Force (USAF) and Department of the Navy (DON), with the USAF as the lead service. SDB II provides the warfighter with the capability to attack mobile targets in all-weather from Stand-Off range. SDB II addresses the following warfighter requirements: attack mobile targets, adverse weather operations, multiple kills per pass, multiple ordnance carriage, precision munitions capability, capability against fixed targets, reduced munitions footprint, increased weapons effectiveness, minimized potential for collateral damage, reduced susceptibility of munitions to countermeasures, and provides a net-centric operations capability. The threshold aircraft for the USAF is the F-15E and for the DON are the F-35B and F-35C. The DON has adjusted the platform integration strategy through the inclusion of F/A-18 E/F using BRU-55 to deliver the capability to the warfighter aligned to adjusted F-35 program's schedule. JMM BRU contract with Raytheon Intelligence Information Systems (RIIS, formerly RTSC) was terminated for convenience 19 October 2017. FY 2018 funds remain in PU 3082 to pay contract termination costs. FY 2019 and beyond funding was transferred from PU 3082 to PU 3072 to pay for mods to the current BRU-61 to meet Navy and Marine Corps environments. BUDGET ACTIVITY JUSTIFICATION: This program is funded under SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION because it includes those projects that have passed Milestone B approval and are conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirement prior to full-rate production decision.
