🇺🇸 B-2A "Spirit of Indiana" (82-1069) carrying JDAMs (QUICKSINK variant) departs Whiteman AFB, Missouri, Sept. 2, 2025. JDAMs were used for an Air Force Research Laboratory QUICKSINK Joint Capability Technology Demonstration in the High North, in collaboration with Norwegian allies, where the precision-guided munitions validated maritime strike capabilities. In addition to testing the munition’s capabilities, the mission also validated the aircraft’s enduring advantages, including its stealth, range, and payload flexibility, while reinforcing its evolving role in maritime strike.
