WASHINGTON, July 21, 2022 - The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Australia of Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles - Extended Range (JASSM ER) and related equipment for an estimated cost of $235 million.  The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today. 

The Government of Australia has requested to buy eighty (80) Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles - Extended Range (JASSM ER) (AGM-158B with telemetry kits and/or AGM-158B-2 configurations).  Also included are missile containers and support equipment; JASSM training missiles; weapon system support; spare parts, consumables, accessories, and repair/return support; integration and test support and equipment; personnel training; software delivery and support; classified and unclassified publications and technical documentation; transportation; U.S. Government and contractor engineering, technical and logistics support services, studies and surveys; and other related elements of logistical and program support.  The estimated total cost is $235 million. 

This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States.  Australia is one of our most important allies in the Western Pacific.  The strategic location of this political and economic power contributes significantly to ensuring peace and economic stability in the region.  It is vital to the U.S. national interest to assist our ally in developing and maintaining a strong and ready self-defense capability. 

The proposed sale will improve Australia’s capability to meet current and future threats by providing advanced, long-range strike systems for employment from Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) air platforms including, but not limited to, the F/A-18F Super Hornet and F-35A Lightning II.  Australia will have no difficulty absorbing this equipment into its armed forces. 

The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region. 

The principal contractor will be Lockheed Martin, Orlando, FL.  There are no known offset agreements proposed in connection with this potential sale. 

Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor representatives to Australia. 

There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale. 

This notice of a potential sale is required by law.  The description and dollar value is for the highest estimated quantity and dollar value based on initial requirements.  Actual dollar value will be lower depending on final requirements, budget authority, and signed sales agreement(s), if and when concluded. 

All questions regarding this proposed Foreign Military Sale should be directed to the State Department's Bureau of Political Military Affairs, Office of Congressional and Public Affairs, pm-cpa@state.gov.

The RAAF is set to acquire an initial package of AGM-158B JASSM-ER low-observable stand-off cruise missiles (shown), which could include the AGM-158B-2 ‘extreme range' variant. (Lockheed Martin)

The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) is set to acquire an initial suite of Lockheed Martin AGM-158B Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles-Extended Range (JASSM-ER) – potentially including the latest AGM-158B-2 JASSM ‘extreme range' variant – following US State Department approval of the possible Foreign Military Sale (FMS) to Australia.

According to a US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) notification on 21 July, the estimated USD235 million FMS package includes provision for 80 JASSM-ER missiles (AGM-158B with telemetry kits and/or AGM-158B-2 configurations) along with JASSM training missiles, missile containers, and support equipment.

The JASSM-ER acquisition is part of a USD2.6 billion weapons package for the Australian Defence Force announced by Canberra in April. This package also includes the procurement of the latest Kongsberg Naval Strike Missile Block 1A variant and an undisclosed hi-tech maritime mine capability to secure Australia's sea ports and maritime approaches.

F/A-18F과 F-35A 둘 다 쏠 수 있네요.

F-35A에 ER이 통합되면 꽤 위력적일 것 같습니다. 중국 해군이 꽤 골치가 아플 듯한..

하아... 미쿸 형님들아, 우리는요... ㅠ_ㅠ; 유럽제 예쁜 쓰레기 너무 비싸단 말이에요.

타우루스가 꽤나 평이 안 좋나 보네요.

[엽군]

좋고 안 좋고를 떠나서. 무장은 1. 최소 요구성능을 충족하고 2. 신뢰할 수 있어야하고(Reliability) 3. 가격이 적절해야하고(Affordability) 4. 사용 편의성이 있어야 하죠. 타우러스가 그 중에서 몇 가지나 충족하는지 모르겠습니다.
