- Change Summary Explanation
- FY 2022 - AETP executed entirely in PE 0604004F, Advanced Engine Development, Project 643608, Advanced Engine Development. FY 2023 - AETP moved out of Program Element 0604004F, Advanced Engine Development and into this program element to maintain separate budget lines for the AETP and NGAP efforts as directed in the 2023 Appropriations Bill and accompanying Joint Explanatory Statement. This is a congressionally directed administrative realignment to provide increased transparency to Congress and is not a new start. FY 2024 - Although the AETP provides the best overall F-35A operational performance, the F135 Engine Core Upgrade will restore engine life and prevent degradation for all three F-35 variants at the lowest cost. As such, no funding required or requested for the AETP.
