Jdam Research Paper
The AGM-158 JASSM is a air to surface missile.
has automatic target recognition, autonomous guidance, precision accuracy, and a J-1000 warhead optimized for penetration. These characteristics give JASSM strong capabilities against heavily defended hard targets such as aircraft shelters and underground command posts, as well as soft targets such as rail yards. JASSM's accuracy of three meters or less reduces the number of weapons and sorties required to destroy a target(AeroWeb 1).
“The JDAM is a gravity bomb guidance kit created by boeing. The bomb can be dropped or released from up to 17 miles (28 km) from the target and receives updates from U.S. Air Force GPS satellites to help guide the weapon to the target”(AeroWeb 1). The F-18 Fighter jet has eleven weapon stations. Two of spots in the wing tips, six spots under the wing and three spots under the fuselage(“Defense F-18 Super Hornet”). …show more content…
Naval Aviation takes extreme skill and knowledge of the aircraft.
The Navy has the technology and the fire power to stay the best Navy air force in the world. This is why Naval Aviators have a fun time doing their job, but also have a lot to keep in mind and are always aware of their planes condition and status. The fighter jets of today are so well advanced that pilots today have more to learn and are always learning new things with their fighter
jet.
