Excerpt:

Norway is planning to declare its F-35s combat ready in 2019, with full operating capability expected in 2020. Lockheed has acknowledged Oslo's concerns that a delay in simulator delivery might disrupt that schedule.

"Given their timeline for declaring [initial operating capability] that has been a concern, and legitimately so because we are a little bit late with delivering that simulator," Carvalho told Aviation Week. "But in our view, the rest of the standup is proceeding smoothly."
