Joint Strike Fighter Squadrons

Abstract

The Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program will develop and deploy a family of highly common, affordable next generation, stealthy, multi-role strike fighter aircraft that meets the needs of the USN, USAF, USMC and allies with maximum commonality among the variants, consistent with National Disclosure Policy, to minimize life cycle costs. This is a joint program with no executive service. Navy and Air Force each provide approximately equal shares of annual funding to the program. The United Kingdom and seven other international countries, and three Foreign Military Sales cases are participants in the JSF program. Follow-on Development will continue the evolutionary approach of SDD by providing capability enhancements though a combined incremental and spiral methodology. The Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) and Defense Acquisition System (DAS) shall provide the framework and basis for defining, managing and acquiring the envisioned F-35 enhancements. This program is funded under Operational Systems Development because it funds efforts to upgrade systems for full rate production. Funding in BPAC 675294 for FY12 and beyond has been loaded to PE 0207142F in error, and should be in PE 0604800F. Due to an inadvertent error the Air Force a technical adjustment transferring $159,837,000 from R-1 Line No. 135 "F-35 Squadrons" to Line No. 81 "Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)". The following exhibits reflect the requested tranfer amounts.
