JASSM Extended Range (JASSM-ER)
Abstract
This program provides a long range (over twice the range of JASSM Baseline), conventional air-to-surface, autonomous, precision-guided, low observable, standoff cruise missile compatible with fighter and bomber aircraft. The requirement is in the JASSM-ER Capability Production Document (CPD), dated 16 Apr 2010. Aircraft integration of JASSM-ER is complete on the B-1B. Objective aircraft are B-52H, F-16C/D (Block 40-52), B-2, and F-15E. 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 developed JASSM-ER based on a contractor-developed, government-approved System Performance Specification (SPS). The program continues development/integration efforts on the Intelligent Telemetry Instrumentation Kit (ITIK), the Electronic Safe Arm and Fuze (ESAF), the Military Code (M-Code) receiver, and Flight Termination System Telemetry Integration Kit (FTS-ITIK) batteries. FY16/17 studies led to survivability improvements via Wing Replacement/Chine Development/Integration and Warfighting Capability Enhancement (Software) to improve performance against emerging threats. Potential future efforts include Anti-Radiation Homing System (ARHS), improved Data Link capability for relocatable target attack, alternate payloads, improved Guidance Navigation Control (GNC), alternative FTS-ITIK power source evaluations, advanced JASSM survivability, and a smaller warhead. The program is also evaluating Diminishing Manufacturing Sources Material Shortages (DMSMS) and reviewing obsolescence issues. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver JASSM weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605826F, 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605830F, 0605831F, 0605832F, and 0605898F. 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.
