Joint Strike Missile Case Study
The Issue
The Norwegian Ministry of Defense supported by OSD was having difficulty making progress in qualification and integration of the Joint Strike Missile (JSM).
These steps are critical precursors to integration of the missile on the Joint Strike Fighter (F-35), which is of national importance to the defense of Norway.
Solution
Lone Star assembled a world class team with extensive weapon development, integration, and testing experience. The team constructed an integrated master plan and detailed schedule to meet the required deadline for JSM Qualification and Tech Demo.
Lone Star contracted with US agencies for execution of the work, operating as an Integrated Product Team.
Results
The program, which was two years behind schedule prior to Lone Star’s engagement, is now on track to meet all critical milestones.
In addition to saving millions of dollars in program cost by avoiding schedule slips, the JSM is ready for integration on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
