"The Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) (F-35, Lightning II) Vulnerability and Live Fire Test Team will be
conducting Full-Up System Level (FUSL) testing on the 1st JSF System Design and Development
(SDD) aircraft (2AA:0001). The F-35 live fire test and evaluation (LFT&E) strategy is to conduct a
comprehensive test and evaluation of the system-level vulnerability and lethality of all three F-35
variants against ballistic and advanced threats. The original LFT&E strategy for determining the
system-level vulnerability for the F-35 family of aircraft was founded on the FUSL testing of an
F-35 short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL) variant. The approach for the remaining two
variants was to leverage the high degree of commonality between the F-35 family of aircraft by
conducting Full-Up testing of the variant unique features and component/system level tests. The
waiver approving this live fire (LF) strategy was approved by the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (USD AT&L) on 25 October 2001."
Ah No ! Full-Up System Level (FUSL) It's AA-01 for Christ sakes! Not that i wanted a full up round to get blown away, EAC paddy wack break a program down. LM to Mr. DOD - can i not make so many jets to test, it's killing my management reserve Good lord...

Updated MOU (Dec 2009)
Here is the latest update to the JSF MOU.

Just so you do not spend the next few days reading every line for changes, only the Annexes are updated.

Found this PDF: http://www.asipcon.com/2006/06_proceed/ ... _Yates.pdf (3.1Mb) which is probably referred to on this page of this thread: http://www.f-16.net/f-16_forum_viewtopi ... rt-60.html
The PDF is titled "F-35 Aircraft Structural Integrity - Program Overview - 28 November 2006"
What was interesting to me (but I 'no squat' about these items) was a graphic showing 'engine mounts'. I recall a question from a chap doing a project about such things but could not find it using 'search'. Anyhoo graphic below.

PPT here: https://www.ncoic.org/apps/group_public ... 5-09-a.ppt has been made into an edited (to reduce file size) PDF. Usual pages seen in almost all F-35 briefings have been deleted. Some pages did not print so the PPT is the reference. PDF pages are best to fit in file size limit of forum. No animated elements of original PPT were retained so page defaulted to all the elements on page.
[EDIT} Realised that an important (but small fillesizewise) page was missing. This page now added to PDF available here. A graphic of same will appear below.

Primo PDF is a Free PDF Print Driver that does a good job of shrinking PPTs (when using eBook mode).
Attached is the output without cutting any pages (only 7mb).

Spuddie, OK thanks. I was going to experiment more today (was late o'dark thirty yesterday). Probably best way to get animations from PPT into PDF is to use latest PowerPoint program from MS which I do not have (only PPT from 2000 probably). Never use PPT actually but have latest greatest Acrobat 9 Pro Extended (yep I did not make that up) which probably gives a great high quality PDF from PPT but when file size is restricted then.... I'll check out the Primo PDF whatname. Actually the latest PowerPoint viewer was used to make an .XPS file which was then printed to PDF. Could not actually print directly from PPT to PDF - why? Dunno. Probably using Windows 7 is part of the problem.
Your 7Mb PDF COMPLETE is a good result.
