AFRL set for further Quicksink tests

by Richard Scott

The US Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has revealed new details of a Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) designed to demonstrate a low-cost, air-delivered precision weapon for anti-ship strikes.

Known as Quicksink, the concept embodies an AFRL-developed Weapon Open Systems Architecture (WOSA) seeker integrated with a Boeing GBU-31/B Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM). Having undertaken an initial experiment last year, the AFRL plans to participate in live sinking exercises (SINKEXs) later in 2022.
