Software problems could delay F-35's delivery beyond 2017

Air Force Lt. Gen. Christopher Bogdan, program executive officer for the $397 billion F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program, says software problems could delay the F-35's delivery beyond 2017, Nextgov reports.

Bogdan said he would have a better picture of the situation after a critical design review and at least six months of flight tests are completed on the Block 2B software delivered by Lockheed Martin. Both the review and the tests are scheduled for early this summer.
