Lockheed Martin AGM-187 JAGM-F

The AGM-187A JAGM-F (Joint Air-to-Ground Missile - Fixed Wing, a.k.a JAGM - Fighter) is a variant of the AGM-179 JAGM for use with high speed aircraft.

JAGM-F has the same seeker/warhead options and the same basic dimensions as JAGM, but a different control surface layout, presumably optimized for higher launch speeds. The U.S. Navy has successfully tested the missile with the F/A-18E/F Hornet. The Marine Corps plans to integrate JAGM-F with its AV-8B and F-35B aircraft.
