→JASMM against Russian Air Defense
'''The Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile''' ('''JASSM''') program began production in 1998, with the [[U.S. Air Force]] declaring it operational in 2003. The extended-range variant, JASSM-ER, underwent its first test in 2006, and the initial batch was delivered to the U.S. Air Force in March 2014.

When JASSMs (or [[Storm Shadow]]s) are employed, their primary vulnerability does not stem from long-range systems like the [[S-400]], but rather from Tor and Pantsir batteries positioned near the target area, as well as Buk-M2/M3 and [[S-350]] systems along the flight path. For this reason, successful [[cruise missile]] missions require meticulous terrain masking, carefully planned waypoints to avoid [[air defense]] clusters, and ideally, pre-emptive SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses) missions or decoy deployments (such as the ADM-160 MALD) to confuse or saturate mid- and short-range air defense systems.
