CF-35 Lightning II
Canadas Next Generation Fighter

Defining the Future

The F-35 Lightning II brings together stealth, agility,

and lethality to deliver 5th generation capabilities to
Canada and its allies for decades to come.

Tomorrows Air Defence a Reality Today

Innovative Production,
Unparalleled Performance
The F-35s common
manufacturing processes and
parts and advanced digital
design tools and assembly
methods help achieve goals
of affordability, quality,
and production efficiency.

aircraft. Lockheed Martin and Pratt & Whitney have track records for delivering the
airframe and engine below government SAR estimates and we expect this trend to
continue in the future. Joint Strike Fighter Program Office

of Industrial Benefits
Industrial Benefits
As the F-35 transitions into full-rate production, opportunities for Canadian
industry will evolve and endure throughout the life cycle of the F-35 program.
Canadian industry has the opportunity to produce and sustain components
and systems to a fleet that is expected to grow to more than 3,000 aircraft.
