SDB II F-18 Integration

Abstract

Due to continuing delays in the F-35 program, the DON has adjusted the platform integration strategy by inclusion of Small Diameter Bomb II (SDB II) and BRU-55 on F/A-18 E/F to deliver the capability to the warfighter in light of continued F-35 program delays. This program funds the aircraft software, integration, and testing required to successfully integrate SDB II and BRU-55 on the F/A-18 E/F to meet a FY 2020 Initial Operational Capability (IOC). In order to meet the IOC, testing will be limited to the F/A-18 E/F midboard stations. Following midboard station testing, the program will test SDB II and BRU-55 on inboard stations and the SDB II and BRU-61 four-place launcher on midboard and inboard stations.
