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 requirement for JASSM-ER is given in JASSM-ER Capability Development Document (CDD), dated 16 Apr 2010. This project develops the extended range version of the JASSM missile (JASSM-ER). The threshold integration platform for JASSM-ER is the B-1B. Objective aircraft are B-52H, F16C/D (Block 50/52), B-2, F-16C/D (Blocks 25-42), 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). The 16 JASSM-ER Operational Test flights were successfully completed in 2013 with a 100% success rate (16/16). Currently, this project develops a Common Telemetry Instrumentation Kit (C-TIK) which will be used during flight testing and will be common to both JASSM Baseline and JASSM-ER. The Electronic Safe and Arm Fuze (ESAF) is partially executed under this project since it's common to JASSM baseline and JASSM-ER. The JASSM program is evaluating Diminishing Sources Material Shortages (DMSMS) and several obsolescence issues.
