Executive Summary
The F-35 remains the DoD's largest cooperative acquisition program, with eight International Partners (IPs)
participating with the United States (U.S.) under Memorandums of Understanding for System Development and
Demonstration (SDD) and Production, Sustainment and Follow-on Development. Additionally, the program has two
FMS customers. The F-35 program has completed over twelve years of SDD, is currently executing LRIP and is
standing up operational sites across the country.
The F-35 program continues to make slow but steady progress and is moving forward in a disciplined manner.
There were many successes as well as challenges in 2013. Successes include: signing the restructured SDD
contract modification; completing the Block 3 Critical Design Review; announcing the decision to terminate
development of an alternate Helmet Mounted Display System (HMDS); completing the 2nd F-35B Ship-Trial period
(DT-II) operations on U.S. Ship WASP, accomplishing 95 Vertical Landings and 94 Short Takeoffs, with 19 night
takeoffs; rolling-out the 100th aircraft from the production facility at Fort Worth, Texas; and resolving lingering
technical design shortfalls to include the F-35C Arresting Hook, Lightning Protection and Fuel Dump.
In addition to our successes, challenges remain. Software development and integration continue to be the highest
risks the program faces as it completes development. Other areas that are of high interest and have warranted
specific management attention include the Autonomic Logistic Information System (ALIS), Prognostics and Health
Management System (PHM), overall Reliability and Maintainability (R&M), cracks found during F-35B durability
testing and F135 engine blade issues. These are typical challenges faced during a development program and
progress has been made against each of these in 2013.
As mentioned above, software development and integration remain the highest technical risks to completion of the
development program. Over the past two years, the Program Office has implemented significant changes in how
system software is developed, lab tested, flight tested, measured and controlled. These changes are showing
positive effects, and the program is moderately confident that the program will successfully release the Block 2B and
3I capability as planned in 2015 and 2016. Block 2B is the initial combat capability, which the U.S. Marine Corps
(USMC) plans to use to declare IOC. The Air Force plans to declare IOC with the Block 3I capabilities by August
2016. However, there is more risk to the delivery of Block 3F, required for Navy IOC and the Services' full warfighting
capability, by August 2018.
Maturation of the critical logistics systems products and sustainment operation processes continues to improve,
although slower than the Program Office would like, as the program continues to develop and field the F-35 weapon
system. Development of ALIS to meet Services IOC requirements continues to mature as the program stands up
operational sites. ALIS is no longer treated as a piece of support equipment, but rather like a weapon system.
Increasing emphasis on: regular design reviews, systems engineering discipline, software development planning
with baseline review boards, and focused metrics and upgraded/improved lab infrastructure.
One critical challenge the program made head way on in 2013 was the HMDS. For more than two years, the
program worked with industry teammates to conduct dedicated flight tests and develop solutions to address the
helmet's technical challenges. Those issues that hampered helmet function have been resolved, and the unit cost of
the helmet system has decreased. As a result of testing and mitigation of the HMDS issues, the parallel
development of an alternate helmet has been terminated. The current helmet has been deemed acceptable to
support USMC IOC in 2015, and the Generation 3 helmet - to be introduced to the fleet in LRIP Lot 7 in 2016 - will
meet program requirements to complete test and development in 2017. The Generation 3 helmet will include an
improved night vision camera, new Liquid-Crystal Displays, automated alignment, and software improvements. The
downselect to the current HMDS also resulted in a price guarantee that reduced the overall cost of the HMDS by 13
percent for the next five years.

R&M remains an area for improvement. Fleet performances (full mission capability rates) have not met
expectations, or projected growth curves. To address these issues, the program is implementing a multi-phase
improvement process. The program is standing up a fully funded rigorous R&M program that will establish R&M
performance goals and hold the enterprise responsible for meeting these goals. In addition, the program is working
on accelerating aircraft retrofits and modifications to measure R&M improvements. The program has also stood up
a cost war room with participation from Lockheed Martin (LM), Pratt & Whitney (P&W), and their suppliers; and
started a second Business Case Analysis to guide future sustainment decisions.
As of late December 2013, the F-35 Program has flown more than 3,700 flights totaling more than 6,400 flight hours
on the development flight test program. The program completed 1,168 of 1,153 test flights planned for the year,
conducted 19 Safe Weapon Separations (GBU-31/-12/-32 & AIM-120), 4 Integrated Weapons Delivery Accuracy
Tests (GBU-12/-32/2 x AIM-120), completed the first 4-Ship Multi-function Advanced Data Link airborne connectivity
test with all variants (F-35A/B/C) and completed night/instrument meteorological conditions Flight Testing. All three
variants have completed their first lifetime (8,000 hours) of structural fatigue testing and have begun their second life
tests. On December 4, 2013 the 33rd Fighter Wing reached a new single-day sortie record by flying 45
operational training missions: the F-35B completed 32 flights, the F-35A had 10 flights, and the F-35C flew three
missions.
LM factory assembly operations are generally tracking to plan. Flight line operations are continuing to demonstrate
improvement, but continued improvement is needed. The Government accepted (DD-250) the last of 32 LRIP Lot 4
aircraft on November 22, 2013. This was four months late to the post-strike plan and eight months late to the
original pre-2010 contract date. On average, LRIP Lot 4 were delivered approximately five months late to the
Government contract dates. All LRIP Lot 5 aircraft are either in Final Assembly or in Flight Line operations. As of
December 24, 2013, ten LRIP Lot 5 aircraft have been delivered. LRIP Lot 5 DD-250 dates have averaged two and
a half months late to contract dates. The delivery goal for 2013 was reduced to 36 aircraft due to the Fort Worth,
Texas Joint Reserve Base runway maintenance shutdown in August 2013. By the end of 2013 the program had
delivered 35 of the 36 planned aircraft to the Government in 2013.
On September 27, 2013, the government signed the LRIP Lot 6 and LRIP Lot 7 production contracts with LM. These
contracts, valued at $8.3 billion (B) combined, will secure the production of 71 aircraft (to include IP aircraft) to be
delivered in 2014 through 2016. LRIP Lot 6 will mark the first delivery of F-35 IP aircraft for Italy and Australia, and
LRIP Lot 7 will mark the first delivery for Norway. In addition, LM will now be responsible to cover 100 percent of any
cost overruns and will share costs equally with the government (50/50 ratio) for known concurrency changes arising
from SDD testing and qualification. This agreement marks a reduction in aircraft cost from LRIP Lot 5 to Lot 6 and a
5 percent reduction from LRIP Lot 6 to Lot 7.
F135 engine deliveries continue to meet aircraft need dates. On October 23, 2013, a contract with P&W for the sixth
lot of F135 propulsion systems was signed. The LRIP Lot 6 contract is valued at $1.1B and covers 38 total engines.
This agreement marks a 2.5 percent reduction in F-35A/F-35C engine costs and 9.6 percent reduction in F-35B
engine costs.
In 2013, the program stood up new F-35 squadrons at Edwards Air Force Base (AFB), Nellis AFB, and Eglin AFB,
made Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort ready for F-35 operations, started up aircraft modification lines at Fleet
Readiness Center East and at the Ogden Air Logistics Center, opened the first overseas F-35 Final Assembly and
Checkout facility in Italy, qualified 65 pilots, including two for the United Kingdom (UK) and trained 414 maintainers
(including UK and Netherlands).
Affordability remains a top priority for the program. The program is attacking this issue head-on by focusing on cost
savings, cost reductions and cost avoidance in development, production, and O&S.
UNCLASSIFIED
F-35
The program has also implemented a strategy that will include event-based criteria and financial incentives for LM to
achieve certain program priorities in the areas of software, ALIS, and R&M.
On the international front, the program made significant progress with both our IPs and FMS countries. There were
many firsts during the past year to include the delivery and acceptance of two Netherlands F-35As, first Australian
and Italian aircraft under contract (LRIP Lot 6), first Norwegian aircraft under contract (LRIP Lot 7) and the first
Netherlands pilot in training. In addition, a major FMS accomplishment was the establishment of the initial Guiding
Principles for FMS integration into the overall program to include financial rules of engagement, and participations in
key functional areas such as sustainment.
In March 2012, in conjunction with the Milestone B decision, certification was made pursuant to section 2366b of title
10, United States Code (U.S.C.). However, at that time, the Milestone Decision Authority waived provision (3)(c),
which certifies that the Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) has accomplished its duties pursuant to
section 181(b) of title 10, U.S.C., including an analysis of the operational requirements for the program. The JROC
accomplished the bulk of its duties under section 181(b); however, because the IOC dates remained "TBD" by the
Services, a waiver has been in place. In June 2013, the Services sent a joint report to the U.S. Congress detailing
their IOC requirements and dates; however, until the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and
Logistics certifies that this provision has been satisfied, the waiver remains in place. The Department will continue
to review the F-35 program at least annually until the certification requirement for this provision is satisfied.

Explanation of Breach
The RDT&E cost breach was first reported in the 2012 SAR. It is the result
of correcting an error made in the allocation of program funding to the two
subprograms. The breach is not in any way due to cost growth in the F-35
Engine development program.
During the March 26, 2012 APB build, the program office incorrectly
allocated an additional 3.3 percent of the total RDT&E funding estimate to
the F-35 Aircraft subprogram. This funding consisted of Other Government
Costs, International contributions to Engine development, and closeout costs
for Engine contracts.
The Program has corrected the allocation issue in the SAR data base,
which caused the Current Estimate for the F-35 Engine subprogram to
artificially breach the RDT&E threshold. The F-35 Aircraft subprogram
experienced a corresponding decrease in the Current Estimate for RDT&E.
The Milestone Decision Authority has been notified via a Program Deviation
Report and a revised APB with the correct funding allocation has
been submitted for approval.

Confidence Level for Current APB Cost 50% This estimate, like all previous Cost Analysis Improvement Group (CAIG) and Cost Assessment and Program
Evaluation (CAPE) estimates, is built upon a product-oriented work breakdown structure; is based on historical
actual cost information to the maximum extent possible; and, most importantly, is based on conservative
assumptions that are consistent with actual demonstrated contractor and government performance for a series
of acquisition programs in which the Department has been successful.
It is difficult to calculate mathematically the precise confidence levels associated with life-cycle cost estimates
prepared for Major Defense Acquisition program (MDAPs). Based on the rigor in methods used in building
estimates, the strong adherence to the collection and use of historical cost information, and the review of applied
assumptions, we project that it is about equally likely that the estimates will prove too low or too high for
execution of the program described.

The Total O&S Cost figures above reflect the CAPE independent life-cycle estimate of O&S costs, updated in 2013
in accordance with tasking from the annual Defense Acquisition Board (DAB) review of the F-35 program. The
O&S cost estimate includes all three U.S. aircraft variants, is based on a forecast 30-year service-life, and is based
on planned usage rates provided by the relevant military service. The planned F-35 usage rates, in terms of aircraft
flight hours per year, are as follows: F-35A CTOL @ 250 hrs./yr.; F-35B Short Takeoff and Vertical Landing @ 302
hrs./yr.; and F-35C Carrier Variant @ 316 hrs./yr. The total life-cycle cost estimate is not a simple extrapolation of
the F-35A flying hour cost shown in the unitized O&S cost table above. Total O&S costs are updated using FY 2013
inflation indices, and include updated forecasts of labor escalation rates for military, civilian, and contractor
personnel. A comparable total cost figure for the antecedent system (i.e., F-16C/D) is not available.
The 2013 CAPE estimate of F-35 total life cycle O&S costs incorporates updated information regarding several key
cost elements relative to the CAPE O&S cost estimate prepared for the MS B review in early 2012. This includes
updated fuel burn rates for the F-35B and F-35C variants, use of historical escalation rates for government
personnel, discrete modeling for Air Force squadrons by geographic location and active or reserve components,
and updated DLR costs. The updated information results in increased cost forecasts for certain cost elements, and
decreased cost forecasts for other elements. The 2013 CAPE total O&S estimate is approximately three percent
lower (in BY 2012 dollars) and nine percent lower (in TY dollars) than the total O&S cost estimate prepared for the
2012 MS B re-approval DAB review.
For the first time, in 2013, the CAPE O&S cost estimate incorporates actual information on component reliabilities
obtained from the ongoing F-35 flight operations, including flight test and field operations. This program information
is provided from the DoD test community, through the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation, and includes actual
reliability information on many F-35 components based on data collected during approximately 8,500 hours of flight
operations. The data include the F-35A and F-35B variants, and flight operations through October 2013.
The reliability information has been compared to expected reliabilities for this stage of the program, for the A and B
variants, based on reliability growth curves. The 2013 CAPE O&S estimate includes an increase of $15 billion
(BY12 $) in DLR costs, relative to the 2012 Milestone B estimate, because component reliability information
obtained from actual flight operations data is not consistent with expectations.
CAPE will continue to work with the DoD operational test community to improve the processes and methods used to
incorporate actual data and information on component reliabilities and removal rates, obtained from ongoing flight
operations, into the CAPE life-cycle O&S cost estimate for the F-35 program. This information will be used,
together with reliability improvement forecasts, to update the life cycle O&S cost estimates as the program
proceeds to and beyond IOC.
The December 2012 SAR identified a few disciplined initiatives designed to reduce sustainment cost. Among
those were a sustainment Business Case Analysis (BCA) to identify cost reduction areas, an Industry day to foster
competition in selected areas of the program, R&M improvements to optimize maintenance approach and a
Targeted Affordability Program with emphasis on total ownership cost. Phase II of the BCA is complete and
consisted of Autonomic Logistics Information System (ALIS), technical refresh, software and hardware
maintenance, Depot planning, site activation and component repair as well as Support Equipment management
repair and training systems. Working in parallel with the prime contractor to reduce cost via competition, the prime
has executed a competition for Support Equipment which has resulted in approximately seven percent reduction in
Support Equipment procurement costs. Since last year, the F-35 program office has assembled a readiness cell to
identify problem areas through use of metrics and analytical data for solutions to reach availability goals of 60
percent or greater across all variants. In combination, program office implemented a fully funded R&M improvement
program which includes diagnostics and analysis of select initiatives as candidate improvements. These
candidates are identified from readiness cell inputs that have the highest impact or potential for redesign to
maximize air system availability. The Program Executive Officer has approved implementation of the top 20

engineering retrofit candidates by year end. The goal is to have 20 candidates implemented in 50 percent of the
LRIP 2, 3 and 4 aircraft. The Targeted Affordability Program synchronizes these efforts enterprise wide with the
standup of the Cost War Room (CWR) in September 2013. The CWR is led by the program office in conjunction
with Lockheed Martin and Pratt & Whitney, and is working on integrating both International Partner and U.S.
Services. The CWR is specifically designed to be enterprise driven by defined sustainment cost reduction targets.
At present, the CWR has generated approximately $17 billion (B) of cost saving initiatives in analysis and
approximately $24B in the implementation and execution phase. The net effect of current initiatives will be
incorporated in the Programs 2014 Annual Cost Estimate.
The F-35 program office estimate of $916.8B TY$ ($541.1B BY 2012 dollars) differs from the CAPE estimate in
primarily four areas: reliability, depot overhaul, government/contractor manpower and F-35A fuel consumption. In
each of these cases, the F-35 program office elected to use the latest technical data provided by F-35 personnel
working in conjunction with the Services. The CAPE used a different data source for reliability as described above.
In the case of depot overhaul, government/contractor personnel, and F-35A fuel consumption the CAPE used
different technical assumptions than the program office. Incorporating the same technical baseline for these four
areas results in less than two percent difference between the CAPE and F-35 program estimates, as opposed to
the current ten percent difference.
