JSF Will Be a ‘Vital Weapon’ in War on Terror

The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter will help usher in a new era in fighter capability, bringing revolutionary technologies to the battle space of the future. In the works for more than a decade now, the JSF will serve as a multi-role aircraft for the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and our international partners. Its superior systems, stealth and firepower ensure the JSF will be the most affordable, lethal aircraft ever used. With three variants sharing 80 percent of their parts in production, the JSF will increase efficiency and continue the military’s modernization efforts.
