ASUPilot Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/pho...F-0986R-288.jpg On the tail of this F-22 there are the numbers 03(small) and 046 (large). Does this mean the plane was built in calender 2003 or paid for in FY2003? Also, does the 046 indicate its serial/production number from the assembly line? Thanks!

ClearedHot Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 It means the funding line from congress to the USAF to the Contractor was in FY03. 046 is the number assigned by the USAF to denote sequence of production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
