Norway has ordered 52 Lockheed F-35A with the first aircraft AM-1 (13-5087) being accepted by the RNoAF on November 6, 2015 and delivered to Luke AFB on November 10, 2015 where they will be used by the USAF 62nd FS for pilot training. When the F-35As are stationed in Norway they will equip the 331st Squadron at Orland. A few F-35As will be based at Evenes AB to protect P-8 maritime surveillance aircraft. By 2021 the F-35As will replace the 56 F-16AMs now in service. Designed to meet the US Military's requirement for a multi-role Joint Strike Fighter, the F-35 was first flown on December 15, 2006. This single-seat fighter is one of the most advanced aircraft of our time, said to be four times more effective at air-to-air combat and eight times more effective at air-to-ground combat than any other existing aircraft. It uses a low-maintenance stealth technology, and some versions have an innovative Lift System, which gives the F-35 vertical take-off and landing capabilities. The US plans to buy a total of 2,443 F-35s at a cost of $323 billion, which makes the F-35 the most expensive defense program in history. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
