JASSM Extended Range (JASSM-ER)
Abstract
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, and F-35. JASSM-ER provides the capability to attack a variety of high value fixed 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) Rev B dated February 28, 2007, which was updated under JASSM-ER development Phase II System Development and Demonstration in FY07. 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. This project also develops a Common Telemetry Instrumentation Kit (C-TIK) which will be used during flight testing and will be common to JASSM and JASSM-ER. Improvements to the JASSM and JASSM-ER fuze, including the development of the Electronic Safe and Arm Fuze (ESAF) is accomplished in this project. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
