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.
