Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare (OASuW) Weapon

Abstract

OASuW will be a vital component of the Joint Force Anti-Surface Warfare (ASuW) capability and incorporate new or emergent technologies to support an increased offensive strike capability with an early operational air launched capability in 2018 on Air Force platforms & 2019 on Navy platforms. LRASM is intended to provide the next generation of ASuW capabilities addressing the most urgent air-launched requirement, significantly reducing Joint Force warfighting risks, and positioning the Department to address evolving surface warfare threats. The effort is currently executing technology maturation of the demonstrated LRASM design in order to support weapon system fielding and integration. Upon completion of these efforts, the Milestone Decision Authority will determine the program's entry phase of the acquisition cycle and baseline parameters.
