Here’s why this 2,000-lb missile is called the ‘terrorist killer’

Lockheed Martin's JASSM air-to-ground missile is dubbed the "terrorist killer" for its bunker-blasting capability.

The missile is designed to go after high-value, well-defended targets from long range, keeping aircrews well out of danger from enemy air defense systems. The 2,000-pound weapon combines a penetrator/blast fragment warhead with a state-of-the-art anti-jamming precision guidance system wrapped in a stealthy airframe with wings.

Features:

• Extended distance standoff range
• Simple mission planning
• Highly survivable
• Adverse weather operable
• GPS/Inertial Measurement Unit inertial guidance
• Pinpoint accuracy
• High lethality
• Fully compatible with B-1B aircraft
• GPS jam resistant

The JASSM can be launched from the B-1, B-2, B-52, F-16, F-15E, F/A-18, F-35, and other aircrafts.

The JASSM can penetrate bunkers and caves before setting off its blast.

Here it is doing what it's designed to do: penetrate and explode.

You can run, but you can't hide, terrorists. It's devastatingly accurate.
