What is the F-35?

• A 5th generation family of strike fighters
• F-16/F/A-18C--like Aero Performance
• Stealth Signature and Advanced Countermeasures
• Advanced avionics, data links and adverse
  weather precision targeting
• Increased range with internal fuel and weapons
• Highly supportable, state of the art prognostics
  and health management

The Current Warfighting Challenge

• Broader distribution of forces and capabilities
  across complex battlespace creates the need for
  greater information and decision-making at lower
  echelons of command
• Deployed assets are currently unable to take full
  advantage of relevant imagery, data, C2, and EA
  in a near real time fashion
• Line of Sight connectivity is limited by terrain
  physical and urban minimizing opportunity for
  collaboration or synchronization
• With critical information inefficiently and
  ineffectively shared, some elements are isolated
  and not visible to and therefore not
  supportable by other capabilities within the
  battlespace
• The inability of warfighters to leverage timely
  and relevant enabling capabilities air, land,
  sea, space reduces tempo and combat
  effectiveness
