Sensor Fuzed Weapon (SFW)

Our Sensor Fuzed Weapon (SFW) wins in more ways than one. Superior lethality makes it the standoff weapon of choice for anti-armor, anti-air defense and other air combat missions. The SFW, a 1,000-pound class weapon, is the first smart air-to-surface munition to enter into production for the U.S. Air Force. Combat proven on April 2, 2003 in Operation Iraqi Freedom, SFW took out multiple Iraqi tanks in a single pass. Visit our Press Room to learn more about SFW's combat performance.

BLU-108 Submunition

Developed in partnership with the U.S. Air Force as part of our CBU-105 Sensor Fuzed Weapon air-to-surface munition, BLU-108 is the only U.S.-manufactured smart submunition in production today. Combat proven in Operation Iraqi Freedom as part of the SFW, the BLU-108 Sensor Fuzed submunition contains four smart Skeet warheads equipped with dual-mode passive infrared and active laser sensors for target detection and engagement. Each Skeet warhead features built-in redundant self-destruct logic modes, leaving battlefields clean of unexploded warheads that endanger the lives of innocent civilians.

Selectively Targeted Skeet (STS) Submunition

Textron Systems’ revolutionary STS Submunition evolved directly from our own BLU-108 Sensor Fuzed Submuniton—a weapon proven highly effective in Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Missiles / PGM Systems

HR Textron Electromechanical Actuation (EMA) technology has improved weapon-system performance in every conflict application. Our tail actuation system (TAS), battle proven in Kosovo and Afghanistan on Boeing's Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM), converts previously unguided free-fall bombs into highly accurate guided weapons.
