The mission of the International Directorate (ID) is to lead
the integration of international participation within the
framework of the program office. The core JSF program is a
multinational cooperative development program comprised of
nine partner nations: United States, United Kingdom, Italy,
The Netherlands, Turkey, Australia, Canada, Denmark, and Norway.
The Department of Defense has placed increasing
emphasis on international armaments cooperation in R&D
and acquisition of weapon systems and defense technology.
In further support of this initiative, JSF ID has implemented
a Security Cooperative Participation (SCP) approach with Israel
and Singapore. Future opportunities will be coordinated with
the respective International Project offices within the Defense
Security Cooperation Agency, Air Force and Navy to ensure
that the USG strategy for international participation is mutually
beneficial to all participants.
JSF ID efforts in support of cooperative
RDT&E, follow-on production and procurement/sustainment
of equipment to meet U.S. or common U.S.-allied requirements
and those that promote interoperability are a high priority
and a critical aspect of the overall JSF Program.
