摘要

With the Office of the Secretary of Defense's intent to cap F-22 production at 187, the Air Force is faced with the decision as soon as this summer on how to handle the shutdown of the Lockheed Martin production line.rnOptions range from closing down the line completely, which would preclude reconstitution, to retaining some tooling in storage for future repairs, F-22 life extensions, or even a line restart at some point for additional cost, officials in the F-22 program office at Wright Patterson AFB, Ohio, said in a May 14 interview.rnThe ultimate decision rests with the Office of the Secretary of Defense and Air Force leadership. But at the program office level, "we are proposing that you at least keep enough tooling so that down the road, if you had damage, or you wanted to do something in terms of extending the life, you have got the tooling to work on this airplane," explained Glenn Miller, a support contractor in the program office.rnHe referred to this option as "shut down with restart capability."rnNo matter what option is chosen for the shutdown, the price tag will not be borne in a single year.rn"It's a three-year lead time" to build aircraft, "so, if you think about it, it's kind of a three-year shutdown process," Miller said.rnThe Air Force has included $64 million in its Fiscal 2010 budget proposal to apply toward the shutdown. Miller and Vince Lewis, chief of capabilities planning and integration in the F-22 office, said there would also have to be funding included in Fiscal 2011 and 2012 for this purpose.rnThe last of the 187 F-22s are scheduled to come off the assembly line in early 2012.
