SDB Increment II
Abstract
Small Diameter Bomb Increment II (SDB II) is a joint program, with the Air Force (AF) as the lead service, which provides the warfighter a capability to attack mobile targets from stand-off, in weather. 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 ops capability. The threshold aircraft for the AF is the F-15E, and the threshold aircrafts for the Navy are the F-35B and F-35C. SDB II will be compatible with the BRU-61/A miniature munitions carriage and the SDB I container systems. Small Diameter Bomb Increment II (SDB II) completed a 42-month competitive Risk Reduction phase in October 2009. Milestone B approval to enter the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase was received on 29 July 2010 and the subsequent Acquisition Program Baseline was signed on 08 October 2010. An EMD contract was awarded on 09 August 2010 to deliver a design that attacks mobile targets from standoff, in weather. Required Assets Available (RAA) on the F-15E is planned to be completed by January 2017. The Navy Initial Operating Capability (IOC) on the F-35B and F-35C is planned to be completed by June 2019. While the complete hardware and software for normal attack, Coordinate Attack (CA), and Semi-Active Laser (SAL) attack will be developed and in place, the normal attack capability will be verified and released first to accelerate capability to the warfighter. Full capability will be delivered in FY 2017 after verification of CA and SAL capability. Objective aircraft include the F-22, F-16, F-35A, B-2, A-10, MQ-9, B-1, B-52, and the F/A-18 E/F. SDB II will continue development to pursue network centric interoperability. SDB II is a key component of the Air Force’s Global Strike Task Force CONOPs. Prior Years funding estimate is $365.037M. The To Complete funding estimate is $433.650M. This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD) because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full-rate production.
