JSF DEPLOYABILITY AND SUITABILITY ENHANCEMENT

Abstract

Funds enhancements to the Deployability and Suitability (D&S) of the air system such as low observable (LO) maintenance enhancements, security architecture updates, redesign of obsolete items and integrated training simulators. These enhancements will provide vital on-demand support to the warfighter within a deployed environment and are not funded via the existing System Development and Demonstration (SDD) program or tied to Block 4 Operational Flight Program development. Funding will result in achieving targeted suitability, maintainability, and affordability returns employing the F-35 in deployed or austere locations. Funding at the accomplishment/planned program level is reported as the total of all services as these activities support all aircraft variants. By agreement, USN and USMC funding shares are approximately equal and when combined are equal to the USAF share. BA5 - This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD) because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full-rate production.
