Global weapons manufacturer Lockheed Martin recorded a £69 million profit spike over a three-month period due to a deal struck with the UK government to provide ongoing maintenance on the controversial F-35 fighter jet program.

The news comes after the F-35 deal was again hit with controversy over a catalogue of issues with everything from overheating bomb bays through to cyber vulnerabilities.

The £1 trillion fighter project, which is the most expensive weapons program ever undertaken, has so far seen the arms manufacturer rake in $525 million in contracts that include “sustainment activities” for the 12 nations buying the jets.

Bruce Tanner, the firm’s chief financial officer, said profits would likely continue to increase as the F-35 project started to deliver.

“You’re seeing tremendous growth potential in both production and sustainment for the F-35 program,” he told the Times.

On Monday, the same newspaper quoted an aviation analyst who warned that the jets, 138 of which are bound for the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force, have serious performance issues in virtually every key area.

According to aviation expert Pierre Sprey, the aircraft are beset by an “unbelievably abnormal” number of issues.

These include on-board computers which may be vulnerable to cyberattacks, and issues with interoperability between the planes and the ships they coordinate with.

“Maneuverability is appallingly bad. It has terrific problems trying to fly fast at low altitude. It overheats, and when you detect the overheating, you have to open the bomb bay doors to cool the missiles that are inside,” Sprey said.

On Tuesday the chairman of the Defence Select Committee Julian Lewis pledged to hold an extra hearing about the F-35 deal as part of a planned inquiry which is set to take evidence on military equipment acquisition.

Typical US silly military product. Full of problems not solved. Take decades to solve. Until expiry date. Out-dated and Bankrupted. Can never count on them to win a war especially against advanced opponents. To bully Saddam of Iraq or Qaddafi of Libya may be lucky.

Useless Angmoh already famous for producing fucked equipment and machines long time ago. That is the reasons they give up manufacturing even on toys and plastic things.

Angmoh created 100 lawyers and 4 engineers, plus hundreds of drug traffickers, since their 1st industrial revolution thier arse.

Stealth fighters such as the F35 are now useless because China has just perfected their passive radar systems YLC 29 that can detect anything that flies and uses electrical instruments onboard (that is any avionics that uses electricity and generates electromagnetic fields). During initial tests, they tried it on F22 flying near China and caused considerable panic in the USAF. Now the YLC 29s are in production and will be sold to everybody. Malaysia should buy some to counter F35 by RSAF.

Will Sg Gov spend our hard earned money on this rubbish?

I hope those who make the decision will do so in the full knowledge that they would be held accountable, not only now, but in the years to come

One day when we have a new govt or new PM, all this wastage would be investigated upon and everyone who negligently allowed the wastage would be charged and imprisoned.
