JMM BRU

Abstract

The Joint Miniature Munitions Bomb Rack Unit (JMM BRU) is an Air Force (AF) led ACAT III program. It is required for the Department of the Navy's (DoN) carriage of the SDB II weapon in the internal bay of the F-35B and F-35C and operation in the DoN environment. The SDB II Capability Development Document (CDD) states that it must be operable on the Miniature Munitions Smart Rack BRU-61/A. The BRU-61/A, currently in production in the AF, does not meet the needs to operate with SDB II within the F-35 internal bay in the DoN environment. The JMM BRU, designated BRU-61A/A, fills the capability gap required by the DoN. Efforts include development of a dual power capability to meet the SDB II operating environment on the F-35. SDB II and the JMM BRU integration were moved from F-35 Block 3 to Block 4. Budgets and schedules have been modified to meet the F-35 Block 4 schedule.
