The team demonstrated success with the use of a proven, tri-mode seeker incorporating semi-active laser, uncooled imaging infrared and millimetre wave guidance.
Boeing advanced weapons and missile systems director Carl Avila said, “The team demonstrated that it is possible to give the warfighter a single rocket motor solution capable of withstanding the rigors of fixed and rotary-wing flight.”
JAGM is being designed to offer the warfighter improved lethality, range, operational flexibility, supportability and cost savings.
