The NSM is a long-range, precision strike weapon that seeks and destroys enemy ships at distances greater than 100 nautical miles. Raytheon tapped its 50-year partnership with Kongsberg Gruppen to deliver the JSM, an evolution of the Naval Strike Missile originally developed for Norway’s Navy. NASAMS helps pilots quickly identify, engage and destroy enemy aircraft, drones and cruise missiles. The two companies also partner on the National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System, or NASAMS, which comprises the Sentinel radar, Kongsberg Fire Distribution Center and AMRAAM missile.

The JSM is the only fifth-generation cruise missile designed to be carried internally by the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. It’s adaptable to multiple platforms and can be fitted externally on legacy aircraft. The Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency (Forsvarsmateriellm - FMA), in association with Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace (KDA), the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), and the US Department. “The Joint Strike Missile’s agility, pinpoint accuracy and stealthy shape allow it to penetrate enemy air defenses, while minimizing pilots’ exposure to the threat,” Neubauer said. Because decisions in the thick of battle are waged in seconds, not minutes, the JSM’s two-way data link offers pilots flexibility to alter or scrap a mission. Some of the modernized technology wired into the JSM includes an infrared seeker to detect threats on its own, ability to fly low under the radar, and a navigation system that can change course in flight to avoid the enemy. Air Force major general and now, a business development lead for Raytheon Air Warfare Systems. “As a former fighter pilot, I can tell you that the ability to hit your adversary before being seen, before you’re exposed to the threat, is an incredible tactical advantage,” said Kurt Neubauer, a retired U.S. Its imaging infrared seeker provides autonomous target recognition, and a two-way data link offers retargeting and mission abort options. The Joint Strike Missile’s navigation system allows it to rapidly change course in flight and fly at low, radar-evading altitudes. Raytheon and Norwegian defense company Kongsberg Defence Aerospace are developing JSM for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. The Joint Strike Missile is the only fifth-generation cruise missile designed to be launched from the internal weapons bay of the F-35A.
