During the free-flight test, JSOW C-1, released from an F/A-18F Super Hornet, demonstrated the weapon’s ability to operate on the Link-16 network and autonomously destroy a moving maritime target.
JSOW is a family of low-cost, air-to-ground weapons that employs an integrated GPS-inertial navigation system and terminal imaging infrared seeker, guiding the weapon to the target.
US Navy JSOW deputy programme manager lieutenant commander Samuel Hanaki said that JSOW C-1 will reach initial operational capability by 2013.
“This weapon will give warfighters the needed capability to precisely engage moving ships at sea from stand-off ranges,” Hanaki added.
