The framework agreement (all three contract lots) has a duration of 10 years with a possibility for renewel once for additional 2 years. DALO has determined that such a duration is justified based on the remaning life time of the F-16 and the time of adaption of a the future replacement figther aircraft (F-35A Lightning II — Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)) in order to minimize the certification costs and secure logistical difficulities.
