F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) - DOT&E
FY17 DOD PROGRAMSF-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)Document (ORD), capabilities the F-35 needs in combat against current threats. Static structural and durability testing continued in CY17 for the third lifetime of the F-35A and F-35C test articles (one lifetime is 8,000 equivalent flight hours). F-35A testing completed in October 2017 and F-35C testing at the end of CY18. The JPO suspended durability testing for the F-35B after completion of the second lifetime of testing in February 2017; the test article had so many repairs it was no longer representative of the production aircraft. The program has not yet procured another durability test article for the F-35B to begin the third lifetime of testing. The effect of the failures observed and repairs required during the first two lifetimes of testing on the service life certification of the F-35B aircraft is still to be determined.
