W80-4 Life Extension Program (Maintaining the Stockpile)
In close coordination with the Department of Defense,NNSA is extending the life of the W80-1 warhead through the W80-4 Life Extension Program (LEP) for use in the U.S. Air Force’s Long Range Standoff (LRSO) cruise missile. Together, the W80-4 and LRSO will help ensure the long-term effectiveness of the bomber leg of the Nation’s nuclear triad. The W80-4 LEP will also extend the warhead’s service life while enhancing its safety, security, and reliability.
W87-1 Modification Program (Maintaining the Stockpile)
NNSA resumed work on a W78 warhead replacement, designated as the W87-1, in fiscal year (FY) 2019 following the 2018 Nuclear Posture Review. By replacing the legacy W78, the W87-1 will maintain continuity for the ground-based leg of the U.S. nuclear deterrent. The warhead is named the W87-1 to reflect that it has a similar primary design to the W87-0 and will fly in a similar reentry vehicle. The W87-1 is based on a previously-tested nuclear component and will include an insensitive high explosive primary that had been designed and tested with advanced safety features. The warhead will be fielded by FY 2030 on the U.S. Air Force (USAF)’s Ground Based Strategic Deterrent. The W87-1 will not provide new military capabilities, yet it will provide enhanced safety and security compared to the legacy W78. The W87-1 will be certified without the need for additional underground nuclear explosive testing.
