Obsolescence Risk and Impact: F-22

Ark.ai conducted a sustainment program analysis of the F-22 Raptor program, examining the vendors, their suppliers, manufacturers, shippers, and other members of the supply chain ‚Äì as well as the critical parts and NiiNs the F-22 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-22 program resulted in the following statistics. There are 2,385 Parts with Declining Procurement and 246 Manufacturers with Declining Procurement. The count of Obsolete Parts is 22,927 and the F-22 program is dependent on 38,467 Sole Sourced Parts.

Information about the critical vendors for the F-22 program, as well as a list of the obsolete and sole sourced parts are included in the following tables.
