Si bien es un proyecto inicialmente impulsado por el US ARMY, es de inter\u00e9s tambi\u00e9n de US AIR FORCE y US MARINES.\u00a0Sus avanzados sensores le permiten operar en modo dual (Laser y radar), para la destrucci\u00f3n de objetivos de alto valor, est\u00e1ticos o en movimiento, terrestres o mar\u00edtimos, de d\u00eda o de noche y en las m\u00e1s adversas condiciones meteorol\u00f3gicas. Adem\u00e1s, su sofisticado sistema de guiado y control, le otorgan gran precisi\u00f3n, alcanzando incluso peque\u00f1os blancos en movimiento, minimizando de esa manera el riesgo de da\u00f1o colateral. Por otra parte, su capacidad de guiado terminal y completa autonom\u00eda, incrementa la supervivencia de las dotaciones de las aeronaves, que salen de la zona de riesgo una vez realizado el lanzamiento.\u00a0El contratista principal del proyecto es <strong>Lockheed Martin Corporation <\/strong>y se estima que el sistema entrar\u00e1 en servicio en 2018.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON\u00a0\u2014\u00a0The missile that will ultimately replace the US Army\u2019s Hellfire missile successfully destroyed a small remotely piloted boat from more than 4 kilometers away, according to the service.<\/p>\n<p>In a Dec. 7 flight test at Eglin Air Force Base Maritime Range, Florida, the Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM) was launched by an AH-64D Apache pilot and was successfully guided to the target using both laser and radar sensors, Defense News has learned.<\/p>\n<p>The Program Executive Office Missiles and Space and the Joint Attack Munition Systems Project Office along with the US Army Aviation and Missile Research Development and Engineering Center and Lockheed Martin \u2014 which is developing JAGM for the Army and makes Hellfire missiles\u00a0\u2014\u00a0conducted the test.<\/p>\n<p>The test, according to the Army, is the tenth successful JAGM flight test. The point of the test was to demonstrate JAGM\u2019s maturity and capability against different kinds of targets in a variety of environments.<\/p>\n<p>The Army has been relatively quiet about JAGM, last announcing a test\u00a0\u2014\u00a0its seventh\u00a0\u2014\u00a0in May 2016 when the Army fired JAGM from a Gray Eagle unmanned aircraft system and hit a truck target going roughly 20 mph at Dugway Proving Ground, Utah.<\/p>\n<p>In that test, the missile flew slightly longer than 8 kilometers at an altitude similar to where a Predator unmanned aircraft might fly.<\/p>\n<p>The missile has also been tested on Apache attack helicopters and Marine Corps Cobra helicopters.<\/p>\n<p>The $66 million JAGM missile engineering and manufacturing development contract was awarded to Lockheed Martin in the summer of 2015. The contract could ultimately be worth up to $186 million, as it includes two additional options for low-rate initial production valued at about $60 million each, the Army has said.<\/p>\n<p>JAGM is intended to reach initial operational fielding in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of 2017, the Army will conduct a limited user test with pilots firing JAGM missiles from Apaches in what is believed to be typical operational scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>The JAGM missile\u2019s threshold requirements are to fly on the Apache and Cobra, Romero said, but the Army is considering what other platforms on which to test JAGM\u2019s capability \u2014 defined as \u201cobjective\u201d requirements. Gray Eagle is an obvious candidate considering it carries Hellfire and also will be teamed with Apaches in reconnaissance missions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fuente:<\/strong>\u00a0<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/articles\/joint-air-to-ground-missile-destroys-small-boat-in-test?utm_source=Sailthru&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=DFN%20DNR%201\/13\/17&amp;utm_term=Editorial%20-%20Daily%20News%20Roundup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.defensenews.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>En diciembre de 2016, el misil JAGM (Joint Air to Ground Missile), lanzado desde helic\u00f3pteros APACHE \u00a0cumpli\u00f3 exitosamente los objetivos, demostrando la madurez del sistema&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[18,29],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1690"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1690"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1690\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1690"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1690"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1690"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
