Description

Description Joint Direct Attack Munition

Note: FY2025 amounts reflect 9.841M in reductions in the FY25 Appropriation Act. The Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) program is a joint Air Force/Navy program with the Air Force as the lead service. Designated ACAT IC, this program upgrades the existing inventory of general purpose bombs by integrating the bombs with a field installed guidance kit using a Global Positioning System-aided Inertial Navigation System (GPS/INS). JDAM provides an accurate, adverse weather capability. JDAM is integrated with the B-52H, B-2A, B-1B, F-16 (all variants), F/A-18A+/C/D/E/F, F-15E, AV-8B, A-10C, F-22A, F-35, and MQ-9 (500lb. variant) aircraft. Integration with the B-21 is in progress. The Air Force is currently procuring Strategic Anti-Jam Beamforming Receiver M-Code (SABR-M) guidance kits which are enhanced GPS-denied environment guidance systems, to meet Section 913 of the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2011 (Public Law 111-383). Pursuant to section 2308 of Title 10, U.S. Code, this program will seek cost efficiencies where available through production lot negotiations. This program will continue procurement past FY2030 due to evolving warfighter requirements driven by ongoing combat and training expenditures. Procurements for the execution year may vary due to changes in inventory objectives. Combatant commanders' requirements for Operational Plans influence these objectives, which are updated throughout the year. Funds may be used to address production Diminishing Manufacturing Sources (DMS)/Material Shortages/Obsolescence issues through studies, bridge buys, life of type buys, supplier/parts replacement, to include electronic components used commercially and in short supply, and qualification activities to preserve future production capabilities and capacities. Funding for this exhibit is contained in PE 0207583F.

Justification

Justification Joint Direct Attack Munition

FY 2026 budget request will procure approximately 1,500 JDAM guidance kits. This program procures JDAM guidance kits, laser sensors, airborne test equipment, and supporting activities to include software block upgrades, integration, Program Support Costs (PSC), and other technical services. The hardware purchase includes a mixture of JDAM guidance kits as well as precision laser guidance sensors, and airborne test equipment for flight test. This procurement is critical to providing M-Code capable guidance kits which are enhanced GPS-denied environment guidance systems in support of an increased Inventory Objective. Procurement quantities can change based on negotiated options/pricing curves, economies of scale, and available funding, in accordance with Title 10, U.S. Code Section 2308 BUY-TO-BUDGET ACQUISITION. The FY 2026 request was reduced by 0.999 million for Advisory and Assistance Services to promote efficiencies and advance the policies of the Administration in alignment with Executive Order 14222, implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Cost Efficiency Initiative.
