BK-1 had already rolled out of the factory .
it's a LRIP-3 jet, so all the LRIP-2 jets had already rolled out of the factory ?
how about other LRIP-3 jets. |

No more than 33,how do I know?
So far P&W delivered 33 engines, 22 birds flying by now.
So the other 11 are 5 of LRIP-2 and 6 of LRIP-3

I guess not all the 11 rolled out already, but on the way.. |

May be off a one-sy or two-sy but something like this --
AA-1
AF-1 thru 14
BF-1 thru 13
CF-1 thru 3
BK-1 |

I think you may be heavy in the -B models. BF-6 flew in late October, and I can't find any references of production deliveries for subsequent aircraft. Also, I can't find any references for AF-14 flying as of yet. |

OK, I see what you mean, tnx for correcting
In that case, they got up to 46 airplanes:
1 AA-1
12 SDD's (4 A, 5 B, 3 C)
33 Production's (2 A from LRIP-1, 6 A and 6 B from LRIP-2 and 19 from LRIP-3)
Hope it's clear now.. |

------------------------
the engines are more than jets.
eg: there're 12 jets in LRIP-2, but 16 engines. |

Maintenance may be  ? Without a spare engine you can’t fly and a F35 is doing nothing … |

Nope. The question was how many had rolled out. The 'B' total is accurate. |

Gotta have engines to do engine maturity testing.
Gotta have engines to swap out if immature engines break... |

OK, fair enough. I'm not sure if "rolled out" has a precise definition, but a better question is how many have been delivered to the customer. |
