DoD moves forward with JAGM

The US Army gave a joint team of Raytheon and Boeing a contract to continue the development of the Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM). The JAGM is the replacement for the failed Joint Common Missile (JCM) system that was canceled two years ago. JAGM will supplement Hellfire and be able to be fired from rotary and fixed wing aircraft. The contract is for the initial development phase of the program and will complete with the delivery of 3 prototypes and test firings.
