Four JASSM Failures Cast Doubt On Program''s Future
Four Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) tests which took place Apr. 30 - May 1 failed to be effective.
Three of the cruise missiles impacted "well outside the target area," at distances greater than 100-200 feet, and the final one had a fusing problem.
This comes at a time when the Pentagon is considering whether to terminate the new stealthy cruise missile program due to cost increases.
