Rolls-Royce late in delivering F-35 parts

The Pentagon is complaining that Rolls-Royce is on average, 160 days late in delivering parts for the F-35B lift fan.

The Defense Contract Management Agency said that while Rolls-Royce and its subcontractors have made progress, the need to fix fan parts that don’t meet specifications “is still a concern.”
