JASSM Extended Range (JASSM-ER)
Abstract
From FY03 to FY08, Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile with Extended Range (JASSM-ER) was funded under the JASSM project (67515). This project provides a long range (over twice the range of baseline JASSM), conventional air-to-surface, autonomous, precision-guided, low observable, standoff cruise missile compatible with fighter and bomber aircraft. The threshold integration platform for JASSM-ER is the B-1B. Objective aircraft include the B-52H, F-16 (Block 40/50), B-2, F-15E, F-35, and F/A-18E/F. JASSM-ER provides the capability to attack a variety of high value fixed (to include buried) or relocatable targets with precision, through preplanned missions or target-of-opportunity, deeper into enemy territory than JASSM Baseline while minimizing the threat to launch aircraft. The Air Force is developing JASSM-ER based on a contractor-developed, government-approved System Performance Specification (SPS) dated January 19, 2004, which was developed under JASSM-ER development Phase I Risk Reduction in FY03. JASSM and JASSM-ER programs were designated ACAT 1D in June 2007 due to a Nunn-McCurdy unit cost breach. On 1 May, 2008, the DAE completed its Nunn-McCurdy review of the JASSM program and certified the program to Congress.
