Lockheed Martin presents the modular AGM-158 FLEX airframe concept.

Lockheed Martin introduced the AGM-158 FLEX airframe concept on September 15. The company describes it as a modular extension of the AGM-158 family intended to support multiple launch platforms and mission payloads.

The announcement presents an industry concept rather than a disclosed customer order, fielded weapon or completed qualification programme. Lockheed Martin has not published enough information in the announcement to independently assess performance, schedule or cost.
