B-1 test squadron demonstrates anti-ship missile

U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Troy Drasher (left) and Tech. Sgt. Alfred Agee both from the 7th Maintenance Group load a Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) into the bomb bay of a B-1 Bomber June 12, 2013, at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas. Unlike current anti-ship missiles the LRASM will be capable of conducting autonomous targeting, relying on on-board targeting systems to independently acquire the target without the presence of prior, precision intelligence, or supporting services like Global Positioning Satellite navigation and data-links. These capabilities will enable positive target identification, precision engagement of moving ships and establishing of initial target cueing in extremely hostile environment.
