Obsolescence Risk and Impact: F-15 Eagle

Ark.ai conducted a sustainment program analysis of the F-15 Eagle / Strike Eagle program, examining the vendors, their suppliers, manufacturers, shippers, and other members of the supply chain – as well as the critical parts and NiiNs the F-15 Eagle program relies on. The program analysis focuses particularly on obsolescence risk, including obsolete NiiNs, declining procurement, and sole sourced parts.

The analysis of the F-15 Eagle program resulted in the following statistics. There are 22,675 Parts with Declining Procurement and 2,580 Manufacturers with Declining Procurement. The count of Obsolete Parts is 236,960 and the F-15 Eagle program is dependent on 81,669 Sole Sourced Parts.

Information about the critical vendors for the F-15 Eagle program, as well as a list of the obsolete and sole sourced parts are included in the following tables.
