In a website update, Sandia National Laboratories said that its B61-13 program for “Nuclear Deterrence” will begin:
“The B61-13 program employed creative program planning to address a pressing demand and crucial difficulty,
Which led to a predicted delivery seven months ahead of schedule and a more than 25% reduction in the total time to first production unit.
“The B61-13 team worked with Los Alamos National Laboratory and NNSA to collaboratively fulfill requirements, reprioritize qualification efforts,
And organize tests with US Air Force stakeholders. Their innovative approach to system certification launched a bold set of initiatives to satisfy stakeholders.
