JDAM DEVELOPMENT
Abstract
The 5000 lb JDAM demonstration is an integration of BLU-113 warhead with a JDAM tail kit to provide accurate, reliable, hard target penetration capability. JDAM accuracy expands the drill down CONOPS used by the GBU-31 (2000 pound class warhead) to a 5000 pound concept, holding harder and deeper targets at risk. This is an objective requirement of the 2001 JDAM ORD. The 5000 lb JDAM expands USG capability using JDAM proven performance, identical CONOPS as existing JDAM inventory, and compatibility with aircraft Operational Flight Profile (OFP). This program is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P) because efforts are necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative modes or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.
