AUSTRALIAN industry can expect to win significantly more than the $100 million in work it has received so far from the massive F-35 Joint Strike Fighter project, a major contractor in the US program said yesterday.

Northrop Grumman JSF deputy project manager Randy Secor said the quality and pricing of work coming out of Australia in the first phase of the program made it highly competitive against firms in the US and other parts of the world.

"If I look at how the (Australian) industry's performed today, we expect it to continue to grow in the future," Mr Secor said.
