Raytheon Completes Improved Small Tactical Munition Lab Testing

Raytheon has completed laboratory integration and testing of its Small Tactical Munition Phase II configuration, setting the stage for flight tests later this year.

STM Phase II is a new 12-pound, 21.5-inch long, precision-guided, gravity-dropped bomb specifically designed for employment from manned and unmanned aircraft systems, and is the smallest air-launched weapon in the Raytheon portfolio.
