The UK has a requirement for its F-35 (Lightning II) aircraft called Freedom of Action (FoA). FoA is defined as the ability of the UK to generate Air System (AS) capabilities at the time of the Government’s choosing through the Air System lifecycle. Part of the FoA programme is a number of sustainment facilities. These UK facilities comprise the Integrated Training Centre (ITC), the Maintenance and Finish (M&F) facility and the Logistics Operating Centre (LOC) all at RAF Marham, Norfolk. All 3 facilities will be new buildings with construction intended to commence in April 2016 and to be complete by June 2018.

Lockheed Martin UK Aero is the Prime Contractor for the delivery of this capability with BAE Systems as principle partner responsible for management of the building construction. LM Aero (US) and LM MST (US) are responsible for delivering and installing F-35 specific equipment. A small LMUK Aero team is responsible for the day-to-day management of the capability project at RAF Marham. In depth support is available from elsewhere in LMUK and from the US.
