Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM)

Abstract

The Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) program provides a long range, conventional air-to-surface, autonomous, precision-guided, low-observable, standoff cruise missile compatible with fighter and bomber aircraft able to attack a variety of fixed or relocatable targets. This project develops the baseline JASSM missile. The requirement for JASSM baseline is given in the JASSM Operational Requirements Document (ORD), dated 20 Jan 2004. Aircraft integration of the baseline JASSM is complete on the B-52H, F-16 (Block 50), B-1, B-2, and F-15E. Objective aircraft include the F-16 (Block 40)and F-35. The government is buying the JASSM system based on a contractor-developed, government-approved System Performance Specification (SPS), this SPS is on contract. The contractor assumes total system performance responsibility (TSPR) for Lots 1-6 as defined in the SPS; for Lot 7 and beyond, the government has approval authority of Class I configuration changes. This project also develops improvements to the JASSM and JASSM-ER fuze, including the development of the Electronic Safe and Arm Fuze (ESAF). The Common Telemetry Instrumentation Kit (C-TIK) is partially executed under this project as it is common to JASSM baseline and JASSM-ER. The program is evaluating Diminishing Manufacturing Sources Material Shortages (DMSMS) and several obsolescence issues. FY15 is the last year of JASSM baseline RDT&E and procurement; this program transitions to JASSM-ER only in FY16.
