Product Description
F-117A Stealth Fighter - Revolutionary Support
for a Revolutionary Fighter
The F-117, developed in total secrecy, was the first operational platform to
employ what is known today as "stealth." Its startling, unconventional
shape clearly signified the arrival of a new era in fighter performance through
low-observable technology.
Since then, Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company has introduced another
revolutionary aspect to the fighter. Through total system performance
responsibility (TSPR) for F-117 sustainment, this unprecedented contract
provides technical, maintenance and modernization support to the 49th Fighter
Wing and its F-117 fleet. This comprehensive support program provides such
enhancements as lean manufacturing and repair processes, significantly faster
spare parts fulfillment, reduced engineering response times, and technical
publications.
Sustainment
In its first two years, TSPR has reduced sustainment costs 12 percent.
Aircraft availability has been increased, total ownership costs reduced, and
operational needs met or exceeded. TSPR is a combat-tested, combat-ready concept
that affirms the F-117's place as a true Aerospace Expeditionary Force
battlefield element.
Modernization
New materials and access-panel stealth technologies significantly reduce the
signature. With upgrades to the stores management system, the new class of
global-positioning-system-guided smart weapons enters the F-117's arsenal. In
the near future, upgrades are planned for cockpit displays, data transfer
systems and the Infrared Acquisition and Designation System.
Proven Performance
Operation Desert Storm first saw the potential of an aircraft that could
penetrate dense threat environments at night. Comprising 2 to 3 percent of
coalition forces, the F-117 accounted for 30 to 35 percent of first-night
targets and hit rates of 75 percent in Desert Storm to over 90 percent in
Operation Allied Force. The F-117 also sustained the highest mission-capability
rates of any deployed fighter or bomber in both conflicts, exceeding 82 percent.
The F-117 has always symbolized revolutionary thinking. It continues to
become more lethal, reliable, supportable and affordable through configuration
upgrades. Its value has soared through TSPR, itself a revolutionary concept in
fighter suppor
