Domestic Supplier Capabilities Questionnaire

Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company is planning to compete several systems for the F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jet. The F-16 offers advanced interoperable capabilities that enhance partnerships with allies. The aircraft has proven its effectiveness for decades and continues to remain the best value among 4th generation fighters for its capabilities and affordable lifecycle costs.

The F-16 Program Management team is seeking interested suppliers to potentially partner with us. We invite you to submit the below questionnaire, communicating your interest and capability to fulfill this objective. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics intent is to use your response to assess the best fit for potential follow-on requests.

This questionnaire serves as a Request for Information (RFI) that is intended solely for planning purposes and does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future.
