The affordable weapon launches with a rocket booster then switches to the SWB-65 turbojet In May 2002, Titan Corporation won a $25.6 million contract to continue the development of the Affordable Weapon System from the U.S. Navy's Office of Naval Research (ONR). Cruise missiles had proven themselves in combat many times, but the U.S. Navy desired to drive down the cruise missile unit cost with a commercially-based, "cruise-like" affordable weapon missile-built entirely with off-the-shelf components and costing about a tenth of the cost of a cruise missile. Launched from a shipping container by a small rocket booster and powered in flight by a SWB-65 turbojet engine, Titan's Affordable Weapon is designed to carry a 200-pound warhead to a target several hundred miles away. The SWB-65 pound thrust turbine was designed specifically for the requirements of the Affordable Weapon program. Equipped with both line-of-sight and satellite data links, the Affordable Weapon can fly directly to its target guided by the Global Positioning System (GPS). Alternatively, the missile can fly to an area and loiter for up to four hours, until a forward observer directs it to a target. Titan has built and tested 15 of these weapons, which can be launched from land, ship, or aircraft.
