Description

The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program is the DoD's most costly acquisition, seeking to simultaneously develop, produce, and field three aircraft variants for the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and eight international partners. The total expected U.S. investment is now more than $300 billion to develop and procure 2,456 aircraft over the next 25 years. A report in March 2009 discussed increased dev’t. costs and schedule estimates, plans to accelerate procurement, manufacturing performance and delays, and dev’t. test strategy. This testimony discusses: (1) current JSF cost and schedule estimates; (2) engine dev’t.; (3) manufacturing performance; (4) contracting issues for procurement of aircraft; (5) and test plans.
