F 35 jsm7/10/2023 ![]() The JSM includes advanced mission planning system to exploit sea and land geography. Studies have shown that the F-35 would be able to carry two of these in its internal bays, while additional missiles could be carried externally. This missile will be integrated with the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. The Joint Strike Missile and will feature an option for ground strike and a two-way communications line, so that the missile can communicate with the central control room or other missiles in the air. The JSM is based on the well-proven and modern technology of Naval Strike Missile (NSM). The Joint Strike Missile (JSM) is a fifth-generation, long-range, precision-guided, stand-off missile system designed by Kongsberg Defence Systems and being developed for the Norwegian armed forces. The JSM, JSOW-ER and AARGM-ER are set to become the internal bay compliant Stand-Off weapon options on Blk 4 F-35A and C variants. This test launch took place as part of the JSM integration program into the F-35 fighter and is carried out in close cooperation with the F-35 Joint Program Office and US authorities. The JSM is being developed by Norwegian company Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace (KDA). The test in association with Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace (KDA), the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) and the US Department of Defense F-35 Joint Program Offi, which was conducted using an instrumented JSM weapon integrated with the US Air Force (USAF) 412th Test Wing F-35A AF-01 instrumented test platform, was part of an ongoing programme to verify the integration and safe release of the weapon system from the Lightning II.

This is an aircraft with a number of sensors for speed, movement, and vibrations, as well as recording of the data bus traffic in the aircraft and communication to the weapon. The program started in 2020, and was carried out with drop from aircraft parked on the ground, and down into a foam mug encoder. ![]() The first phases of the JSM integration work are contracted directly with US authorities. The Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency (Forsvarsmateriell-FMA) in February conducted the first in-flight test release of a Joint Strike Missile (JSM) from the F-35A CTOL (Conventional Take-Off and Landing) Lightning II multirole stealth fighter over Edwards Air Force Base, California. ![]()
