Lockheed Martin anticipates renewed interest in the F-35 Lightning II, driving a surge in follow-on orders for the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF).

Speaking to Janes at the IQPC International Fighter Conference 2022 (IFC 2022) in Berlin, JR McDonald, vice-president of F-35 strategy and business development for the company, said that existing customers are looking to make good on their original programme of record (PoR) numbers as increased budgets become available.

“We do [see this interest in follow-on orders]. We have always had discussions with customer countries as to where they are now [in terms of aircraft numbers], and where they want to be later. Some have anticipated needing more, and from some, we are waiting to see,” McDonald said on 17 November.
