Overall Program Status
• 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

What Makes F-35 Different
• 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
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!
