We delivered over a hundred F-35s last year, reaffirming Lockheed Martin's commitment to our customers and warfighters.
The world’s most advanced fighter jet provides unmatched lethality, survivability, and connectivity to America's military and allies worldwide. With more than 1,000 F-35s delivered to date, the F-35 program has reached a new milestone in scale and capability.
F-35 Boosts America's Economy and Jobs
The F-35 program contributes approximately $72 billion annually to America's economy. Its network of 1,650 suppliers supports 275,000 U.S. jobs across all 50 states, including an estimated 22,750 union jobs.
Force Multiplier
The F-35 is more than just a fighter jet—it’s a true force multiplier. With the most advanced sensor suite of any fighter in history, it delivers unrivaled interoperability and strength to the joint force.
Building the Future, Today
The F-35 is a cornerstone of global security and economic resilience. Looking ahead, we remain committed to driving innovation, strengthening partnerships, and supporting the men and women who depend on the F-35 to protect their nations.
