Lockheed Martin Corporation has announced a significant milestone in sustainable aviation with the approval of synthetic aviation turbine fuels (SATF) for its tactical aircraft fleet. Following the earlier approval for the F-35 Lightning II, the company has now expanded this capability to include the F-16 Fighting Falcon and C-130 Hercules. This advancement demonstrates Lockheed Martin's commitment to energy resilience and mission readiness. The integration of SATF, which includes blends of up to 50% with conventional jet fuel, supports the U.S. Department of Defense's objectives for energy substitution and diversification. This approval is a crucial step in enhancing operational flexibility and reducing carbon emissions within the aviation sector.
