Air Force chief Schwartz worried about F-35 pace
Count Gen. Norton Schwarz, Air Force Chief of Staff, as being among those who not totally reassured by all the assurances from Lockheed Martin and the Pentagon's own Joint Strike Fighter office that the F-35 progam's problems have all ben sorted out, are understood and will get resolved.
In an Air Force Times article, Schwartz said his service’s version of the F-35 is showing “good software stability,” but also that he was worried that software devvelopment and testing might not be completed in time, despite assurances from program management. He also called Lockheed's performance so far "a pain in the ass."
