AGM-158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM)

The Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) is an autonomous, long-range, conventional, air-to-ground, precision standoff missile for the U.S. Air Force and Navy. JASSM is designed to destroy high-value, well-defended, fixed and relocatable targets. JASSM’s significant standoff range keeps Air Force and Navy aircrews well out of danger from hostile air defense systems. The missile’s mission effectiveness approaches single-missile target kill capability. With this superior performance and affordable price, JASSM offers the best value of any weapon in its class.

    Correction. The designation for JASSM is AGM-158, not AGM-168. The poor quality of the videoclip could lead one to make this mistake.
