    Chapter 4 Acquisition timeline and potential alternatives Introduction 4.1 This chapter considers the F-35A acquisition schedule, the risk of the creation of a capability gap should there be further delays to the acquisition timeline, and potential alternatives to the F-35A. Acquisition schedule 4.2 Defence advised the committee that the 'F-35 Program schedule is structured to address the resources required to deliver a highly technical and complex program' and that, as a result, the System Development and Demonstration phase is 'characterised by a concurrent design and production model'. Defence explained that 'this level of concurrency has introduced some risk' to the Program, demonstrated by the Program re-baselining and issues that have become evident during test and evaluation. 1 Defence noted that software development is 'effectively complete' and is now the 'main focus of the ongoing test and evaluation program'. Defence advised that, as at January 2016, the final software build had completed 50 per cent of baseline test points, but that 'significant test points are yet to be undertaken and issues found will need to be rectified'.2 4.3 Defence advised that the F-35 Program schedule has 'stabilised' since the re- baselining in 2012, with 'any movements being managed through schedule margins built into the Program'. However, 'completion of the test and evaluation program and ensuring the required warfighting capability at the completion of the System Development and Demonstration phase carries schedule risk that will need to be carefully

  • Uk Dti-Report 2014.Pdf
    1 This is the second year that UKTI DSO has released defence and security export figures as ‘Official Statistics’. This year’s release has been compiled in conjunction with the BIS Statistics - Analysis team. The document takes into account feedback from readers via a User Engagement survey. Our defence statistics relate to sales to overseas Ministries of Defence and associated Armed Services. This makes them customer‐based, rather than product-based. Security data is provided by a contractor called kMatrix, under a multi-year contract to UKTI DSO. All the information collected on the defence and security markets is vital to our understanding of the shape of the market and trends. It helps UKTI DSO in targeting support to all sections of the defence and security industries. 2 3 The global defence export market in 2014 is estimated to be valued at more than £50Bn ($83Bn). In an increasingly competitive global export market, the UK’s defence export total of £8.5Bn in 2014 is a considerable achievement, particularly coming off the back of major platform exports in 2013. UK defence companies enjoyed global success throughout 2014. Selected UK defence wins included Trent 700 engines for A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) aircraft to France; Advanced Short Range Air-to-Air Missiles (ASRAMM) to India and the ForceShield Integrated Air Defence System plus Starstreak Missiles to Indonesia. By geographic customer destination, the UK’s most important markets for defence and security exports were in the Middle East, North America and the Asia-Pacific. 4 Year-on-year, the global defence export market experiences peaks and troughs in response to fluctuations in defence spending levels, threat perception and national requirements.
