TME Ltd, Basingstoke, U.K., designed and produced the complete operational fusing system, which includes the contact switch and two Multi Application Fuze Initiation System (MAFIS) fuses used to initiate the warheads.

The U.S. Navy awarded BAE Systems a $4.2 million low rate initial production (LRIP) contract to provide its BROACH multi-stage warhead for the Navy÷Õ Joint Standoff Weapon Unitary variant (JSOW-C). Initial delivery of more than 3,000 total units will begin in early 2004. A second LRIP is scheduled for award in December of this year, with the first Full Rate Production contract scheduled for December of 2004.

Zwar keine ganze Waffe, aber ein wichtiger Teil beim JSOW wird British sein, und zwar der BROACH Sprengkopf, dieser ist auch in den Britischen Storm Shadows enthalten.
