The 2,000-pound weapon combines a penetrator/blast fragment warhead with a state-of-the-art anti-jamming precision guidance system wrapped in a stealthy airframe with wings.Features:
- Extended distance standoff range
- Simple mission planning
- Highly survivable
- Adverse weather operable
- GPS/Inertial Measurement Unit inertial guidance
- Pinpoint accuracy
- High lethality
- Fully compatible with B-1B aircraft
- GPS jam resistant
The JASSM can be launched from the B-1, B-2, B-52, F-16, F-15E, F/A-18, F-35, and other aircrafts.
