Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile

The Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) is a Major Defense Acquisition Program managed by the U.S. Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Eglin Air Force Base. JASSM is a long-range, conventional, air-launched cruise missile system designed to destroy high-value, well-defended fixed and relocatable targets from standoff range. The program includes both the baseline JASSM variant as well as an Extended Range (ER) version and the Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) derivative.

The program's contract awards primarily consist of production lots, engineering services, software development, and sustainment support, with individual contract values ranging from under $1 million to over $1 billion and performance periods typically spanning 2-5 years. Lockheed Martin Corporation serves as the primary prime contractor, with major subcontractors including Williams International (engines), BAE Systems (electronics), Parker Hannifin (control systems), and various suppliers of specialized components. The majority of work is performed in Orlando, Florida, with additional sites in various U.S. locations. The contracting activity is predominantly the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Eglin AFB, with some awards from Naval Air Systems Command for LRASM variants. Contract vehicles include both definitive contracts and delivery orders, typically structured as either firm-fixed-price or cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangements, with no small business set-asides observed in the dataset.
