RAAF Hornet carried out successful JASSM firing in Australia

A RAAF F/A-18 Hornet successfully fired a Joint Air to Surface Stand-off Missile (JASSM) at the Woomera test range last week.

This paves the way for the weapon to reach Initial Operational Capability (IOC) by the end of the year. The missile will also be cleared from the government’s “projects of concern” watch list soon.
