Lockheed Martin F/A-22 Program Focused on Reliable Production, Solid Performance and Expanding Capabilities Delivering Air Dominance to the Air Force

WASHINGTON --- Lockheed Martin’s Deputy Vice President for Business Development Rob Weiss said yesterday that the Lockheed Martin-led Raptor industry team has reached a new level of program maturity with reliable production, solid performance and expanding capabilities.

Speaking to reporters at the 2004 Air Force Association National Conference, Weiss said the F/A-22 program is healthy, solid and on track. He added that significant advances in production have been made over the past year, and aircraft committed for delivery in 2004 are completing production build according to schedule.

“We are delivering high-quality aircraft faster than ever before, meeting our 2004 commitment to the Air Force, and we have begun the initial stages of Raptor modernization,” Weiss said. “We are excited that the Air Force’s operational testing is nearing completion and look forward to a full-rate production decision.”
