For the airplane aficionado, the appeal of the F/A-22 is clearly its sleek, powerful contours and its stealth capacity. For the military, F/A-22 symbolizes combat air dominance with next-generation, affordable tactical aircraft. But for the engineering connoisseur whom revels in "all that truly works", the F/A-22 program exemplifies proficiency in every sense of the word. It puts the "high" in the high-tech realm of aviation, engineering, manufacturing and inspection technologies.

Lockheed Martin (Fort Worth, TX) leads the effort to bring the F/A-22 to fruition. Partnering with Northrop Grumman and BAE SYSTEMS, Lockheed has formed the F/A-22 Team – a group of industry experts pouring ingenuity to areas critical to the program's success. These specialists focus on one principal concept: a common design with affordable, and supportable variants that fulfills the distinct needs of each military service.
The resounding mandate of the F/A-22 project is leaner-than-lean manufacturing based upon a technical recipe called "the digital thread". It is this methodology that will capture the heart of any engineer or IT professional involved in streamlining product development. In a nutshell, the F/A-22 program embraces elite concept-to-asset practices without reinventing the wheel. |
