Lockheed Martin Corp. has delivered more than 800 F-35 fighter jets, but production is still marred by excessive defects and rework that risk substantial delivery delays and reduced readiness, according to the Pentagonโs Defense Contract Management Agency.
Lockheed, the Defense Departmentโs top contractor, has improved in many regards from the F-35โs first production lot through the current 14th batch, but โtoo many quality assurance defectsโ arenโt found at the initial assembly station only to be discovered either before or after formal acceptance of the warplanes, the agency said in a statement.
