US Navy to field Stormbreaker precision bomb on F/A-18 fleet
Stormbreaker is an air-launched, precision stand-off weapon able to strike moving and fixed targets. The glide bomb uses a seeker head equipped with an infrared, a millimetre-wave radar and a semi-active laser to see through adverse weather conditions, including fog, smoke and rain. The munition can also be guided via GPS, although the Pentagon is actively seeking alternatives... assume that modern adversaries will employ GPS-jamming in future conflicts.
“This weapon will... provide the basis for future network-enabled weapons.”
Stormbreaker travel more than 35nm (65km)... an operational weight of just 93kg (204lb).
The Stormbreaker is already in service with the US Air Force’s F-15E Strike Eagle, having been approved for use in 2020. Integration is also underway with the F-16.
Both the air force and navy are in the process of certificating the weapon system for use with the full fleet of F-35A, B and C.
Ferraro, president of air power at Raytheon, says the weapon’s stand-off ability is helping to ensure “the continued relevance of fourth-generation aircraft”, such as the F/A-18.
