route to target. It is designed to kill 

hard, medium-hardened, soft and area 

type targets. The extended range over 

the baseline was obtained by going from 

a turbo jet to a turbo-fan engine and by 

reconfiguring the fuel tanks for added 

capacity. Classification of the technical 

data and information on the AGM-158’s 

performance, capabilities, systems, 

subsystems, operations, and 

maintenance will range from 

UNCLASSIFIED to SECRET. 

a. The AGM-158B Joint Air-to-Surface 

Standoff Missile (JASSM) software-inthe-Loop (SIL) testing assets are 

required for software development, 

integration, and test in the lab 

environment as well as ground mount 

operations before STV or Live Fire 

assets can be loaded on the aircraft to 

execute Airworthiness, Flight Test, and 

Live Fire events. These assets are for 

testing in the contiguous United States 

and will not be exported. Software 

development will be to the extent 

necessary to produce Engineering 

Releases needed to conduct 

airworthiness, integration and live fire 

testing. Testing equipment is 

CLASSIFIED. 

b. The AGM-158B-2 JASSM 

Separation Test Vehicle (STV) is 

equipped with Intelligent Test 

Instrumentation Kit (iTIK). These assets 

will be used as part of the airworthiness 

data collection process to ensure safe 

separation of the munition from the 

aircraft. These missiles will be handled 

and stored in custom individual 

containers. These two (2) missiles are 

for testing in the contiguous United 

States and will not be exported. 

Software development will be to the 

extent necessary to produce Engineering 

Releases needed to conduct 

airworthiness, integration and live fire 

testing. 

c. The AGM-158B-2 (JASSM) 

Instrumented Test Vehicle (ITV) is 

equipped with iTIK. This asset will be 

utilized to capture flight data 

information in a ‘‘Captive Carry‘‘ 

configuration. The information collected 

will ensure the munition can be safely 

carried and is required as part of the 

airworthiness process prior to launch of 

the STV, JTV, and the Live Fire asset. 

These missiles will be handled and 

stored in custom individual containers. 

This missile is for testing in the 

contiguous United States and will not 

be exported. Software development will 

be to the extent necessary to produce 

Engineering Releases needed to conduct 

airworthiness, integration and live fire 

testing. 

d. The AGM-158B-2 JASSM Jettison 

Test Vehicle (JTV) is not equipped with 

an iTIK. These assets will be used as 

part of the airworthiness data collection 

process to ensure safe jettison of the 

munition from the aircraft. These 

missiles will be handled and stored in 

custom individual containers. These 

two (2) missiles are for testing in the 

contiguous United States and will not 

be exported. Software development will 

be to the extent necessary to produce 

Engineering Releases needed to conduct 

airworthiness, integration and live fire 

testing. 

e. The AGM-158B-2 JASSM 

Maintenance Training Missile (DATM) 

is a missile for maintenance (Weapon 

Load Crew) training with container. 

5. The GBU-31 Joint Direct Attack 

Munition (JDAM) is a 2,000-lb Internal 

Navigation System/Global Positioning 

System (INS/GPS) guided precision airto-ground munition. The GBU-31 

consists of a KMU-556 warhead specific 

tail kit, and MK-84 bomb body. 

6. The GBU-38 Joint Direct Attack 

Munition (JDAM) is a 500-lb Internal 

Navigation System/Global Positioning 

System (INS/GPS) guided precision airto-ground munition. The GBU-38 

consists of a KMU-572 warhead specific 

tail kit, and MK-82 bomb body. 

7. The GBU-54 Laser Joint Direct 

Attack Munition (LJDAM) is a 500-lb 

JDAM which incorporates all the 

capabilities of the JDAM guidance tail it 

and adds a precision laser guidance set. 

The LJDAM gives the weapon system an 

optional semi-active laser guidance in 

addition to the Internal Navigation 

System/Global Positioning System (INS/ 

GPS) guidance. This provides the 

optional capability to strike moving 

targets. The GBU-54 consists of a laser 

guidance set, KMU-572 warhead 

specific tail kit, and MK-82 bomb body. 

8. The AGM-154 JSOW is used by 

Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force, and 

allows aircraft to attack well-defended 

targets in day, night, and adverse 

weather conditions. The JSOW C and C1 utilize GPS/INS guidance and an 

uncooled imaging infrared seeker for 

terminal guidance, Autonomous 

Acquisition, and provides a precision 

targeting, 500-lb-class tandem warhead 

that is the Navy’s primary standoff 

weapon against hardened targets. The 

JSOW C-1 added the Link-16 datalink 

enabling a robust and flexible capability 

against high-value stationary land 

targets and moving maritime target 

capability. JSOW C-1 can fly via two 

dimensional and three dimensional 

waypoints to the target, offering the 

optimal path around Integrated Air 

Defense Systems (IADS). 

The JSOW incorporates components, 

software, and technical design 

information that are considered 

sensitive. The following JSOW-C 

components being conveyed by the 

proposed sale include the GPS/INS, IIR 

seeker, INS OFP software and missile 

operational characteristics and 

performance data. These elements are 

essential to the ability of the JSOW-C 

missile to selectively engage hostile 

targets under a wide range of 

operational, tactical, and environmental 

conditions. 

9. The highest level of classification of 

defense articles, components, and 

services included in this potential sale 

is SECRET. 

10. If a technologically advanced 

adversary were to obtain knowledge of 

the specific hardware or software 

elements, the information could be used 

to develop countermeasures that might 

reduce weapon system effectiveness or 

be used in the development of a system 

with similar or advanced capabilities. 

11. A determination has been made 

that Finland can provide substantially 

the same degree of protection for the 

sensitive technology being released as 

the U.S. Government. This sale is 

necessary in furtherance of the U.S. 

foreign policy and national security 

objectives outlined in the Policy 

Justification. 

12. All defense articles and services 

listed in this transmittal have been 

authorized for release and export to 

Finland.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

DON’s Proposed Action is to continue 

periodic military training activities 

within the GOA TMAA. Proposed 

training activities are similar to those 

that have occurred in the GOA TMAA 

for decades. The geographic extent of 

the GOA TMAA and Proposed Action, 

including the location, number, and 

frequency of major training exercises, 

remain unchanged from the 2016 Final 

Supplemental EIS/OEIS. Although the 

types of activities and number of events 

in the Proposed Action are the same as 

in previous documents (Alternative 1 in 

both the 2011 and 2016 impact 

analyses), there have been changes in 

the platforms and systems used in those 

activities. For example, the EA–6B 

aircraft and frigate, and their associated 

systems, have been replaced by the EA– 

18G aircraft, Littoral Combat Ship, and 

Destroyer. The 2020 Draft Supplemental 

EIS/OEIS includes the analysis of at-sea 

training activities projected to meet 

readiness requirements beyond 2022 

and into the reasonably foreseeable 

future, and reflects the most up-to-date 

compilation of training activities 

deemed necessary to accomplish 

military readiness during that time 

period. 

The 2020 Draft Supplemental EIS/ 

OEIS also updates the 2011 and 2016 

impact analyses with new information 

and analytical methods the DON 

developed and has used since 2016. 

New information includes an updated 

acoustic effects model, updated marine 

mammal density data and sea turtle 

hearing criteria, and other emergent best 

available science. The DON is preparing 

a Supplemental EIS/OEIS to renew 

required federal regulatory permits and 

authorizations under the Marine 

Mammal Protection Act and the 

Endangered Species Act. The DON will 

consult with the National Marine 

Fisheries Service (NMFS) and United 

States Fish and Wildlife Service to 

renew these permits and authorizations. 

Additionally, NMFS is a cooperating 

agency for this Supplemental EIS/OEIS. 

The 2020 Draft Supplemental EIS/ 

OEIS is available for electronic viewing 

or download at www.GOAEIS.com. The 

2020 Draft Supplemental EIS/OEIS was 

distributed to federal agencies and 

federally recognized Alaska Native 

Tribes with which the DON is 

consulting. 

All comments submitted during the 

public review and comment period from 

December 11, 2020, to February 16, 

2021, will become part of the public 

record, and substantive comments will 

be addressed in the Final Supplemental 

EIS/OEIS. 

The DON is committed to providing 

the public an accessible version of the 

2020 Draft Supplemental EIS/OEIS 

during COVID–19 conditions. If you 

need assistance accessing the document 

or attending the virtual public meetings,
