In 1993, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) launched the Common Affordable Lightweight Fighter project (CALF). The project’s purpose was to develop a stealth-enabled design to replace all of United States Department of Defense lighter weight fighter and attack aircraft, including the F-16 Fighting Falcon, McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet, and vertical/short takeoff / vertical landing (V/STOL) AV-8B Harrier II.^[1] Around the same time the Joint Advanced Strike Technology (JAST) project was started.^[2] In 1994, the U.S. Congress ordered the two to be merged into the Joint Strike Fighter Program.
