British Aerospace has selected Gencorp Aerojet as its US partner for the Broach penetrator warhead, which is a candidate for use on the Raytheon TI Systems Joint Stand-Off Weapon (JSOW) and the Boeing AGM-86C conventional air-launched cruise missile (CALCM). Gencorp will support engineering and integration of the Broach system on the US missiles, and would be involved in production of Broach warheads for the US Department of Defense. The US Air Force is expected to modify several hundred AGM-86B nuclear-armed air-launched cruise missiles into the CALCM Block 2.
