FORT WORTH, TEXAS (Nov. 03, 2022) – F-35 Joint Program Executive Officer (PEO) Lt. Gen. Michael Schmidt (center) poses for a photo with F-35 Air Vehicle Deputy Director Jerry Johnson (left) and Col. Joe Wimmer, commander of Defense Contract Management Agency Lockheed Martin Fort Worth, (right), while elevated above the production floor at Lockheed Martin’s Air Force Plant 4 in Fort Worth, Texas, Nov. 03, 2022, with the F-35 assembly line in the background. This was Schmidt’s first visit to the facility since having assumed the duties of F-35 PEO. The F-35 Joint Program Office is the Department of Defense's focal point for the 5th generation strike aircraft for the Navy, Air Force, Marines, and our allies. The F-35 is the premier multi-mission, 5th-generation weapon system. Its ability to collect, analyze and share data is a force multiplier that enhances all assets in the battle-space: with stealth technology, advanced sensors, weapons capacity, and range. The F-35, which has been operational since July 2015, is the most lethal, survivable, and interoperable fighter aircraft ever built.
