• F-35 Program baseline holding steady; Continued progress on all fronts◦ Total weapon system view

• Affordability◦ SDD – Cost reduction initiatives◦ Production – Ramp Rate, Blueprint for Affordability, Block Buys◦ O&S – $19B Reduction in O&S estimate, R&M program, Cost War Room, Aircraft Availability

Focus• Schedule

◦ Service IOCs on track/Global Sustainment posture accelerating◦ Software development/fielding not on critical path (margins)

• Technical performance◦ Past risks improving (helmet, hook, fuel dump, lightning protection, software maturity)◦ Current risks/issues being addressed (engine, structural cracks, ALIS, R&M, Mission Data

Files)• Partnership strong and FMS customers growing• Not the same program as in the past

Overall Program Status


• F-35 utilized an integrated systems approach to ensure long lasting lethality and survivability advantages against current and future Air to Air and Surface to Air threats

• Key elements of the F-35 systems of systems approach was the integration of and synergies between:◦ Advanced Stealth◦ Fused Multi-Spectral Active and Passive Situational Awareness◦ Advanced Inter-operability◦ Multi-Ship Situational Awareness and Tactics / Mutual Support◦ Advanced Offensive and Defensive Electronic Attack◦ Advanced Countermeasures ◦ Maneuverability with Combat Loads◦ Persistence

What Makes F-35 Different

F-35 represents a system of system design solution to ensure operational advantages over current and future threats for the US and it’s allies!
