FORT WORTH, Texas, May 16, 2011 – The second F-35A Lightning II production aircraft flies
above the compass rose of Rogers Dry Lakebed at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., May 13.
The aircraft, designated AF-6, ferried to Edwards AFB from Naval Air Station Fort Worth Joint
Reserve Base following the Air Force formally accepting the fighter into its inventory May 12.
The first production jet, AF-7, was delivered to Edwards AFB May 6.
Notice how quickly the delivery dates are between the first and second F-35A! Learning curve gentlemen. Learning curve!
do you know when LRIP ends and full production begins?
ReplyDeleteOne plane every six days...so it will only take over four decades to deliver all of them.
ReplyDeletei said production is ramping up cowboy!
ReplyDeletedamn, this is still the development phase and they're achieving this. what do you think full rate production will look like?
