TACTICAL AIRCRAFT: F-22 Development and Testing Delays Indicate Need for Limit on Low-Rate Production

Contributor
Summary
As you know, the Air Force is developing the F-22 aircraft which is designed with advanced features to allow it to be less detectable to adversaries, capable of high speeds for long ranges, and able to provide the pilot with substantially improved awareness of the surrounding situation through the use of integrated aviation electronics (avionics). These features are expected to permit the F-22 to penetrate adversary airspace, operate with limited interference, and destroy targets in the air as well as on the ground. In view of past increases in cost estimates to complete development, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 limited the cost of F-22 development to $20.443 billion, as adjusted under the act's provisions. The act requires us to annually assess whether the Air Force s engineering and manufacturing development program for the F-22 aircraft is meeting key goals. The act also requires us to assess whether we had access to sufficient information to make informed judgments on matters covered by our report
