January 8, 2020

The F-35 program has faced troubles historically, even as Congress and DOD continue ordering more of the aircraft.
“The significant increase in on-time deliveries reflects the growing maturity of the entire F-35 enterprise and our focus on continuous improvement,” a Lockheed spokesperson told Bloomberg in an email.
