The James Webb Space Telescope is a 6.5 meter aperture, segmented mirror space telescope scheduled for launch in 2013. The project is a partnership between NASA, ESA and CSA. This paper will provide an overview of the current JWST architecture and mission status including technology developments and risks. We will discuss the optical performance and specification for the telescope in order to provide a context for the discussion of NIRCam, FGS and MIRI coronagraphs.
