One type of carbon fiber and the nicalon fiber that the company uses currently are only available from single-source suppliers.

Lockheed has subcontracted with other companies to provide fiber sheet products for the F-22 fighter. Two fiber sheet products are at issue in the present action. The first product is a prepreg made from Nicalon fiber, which is a product of the Nippon Carbon Company (a Japanese company) and is distributed by COI Ceramics, Inc., in the United States. The second product is a silicon carbide fiber mat product made from Tyranno fibers. Although Defendant asserts that Tyranno fibers are manufactured exclusively in Japan by Ube Industries, this remains a genuine issue of material fact.
Petitioner claims that the United States, through its contractor Lockheed Martin Corporation, used the patented methods to produce two silicon carbide fiber products used in the manufacture of the F-22 aircraft. Pet. App. A5.
Neither fiber product was produced by practicing each step of the patented methods within the United States. Rather, the Nicalon fibers were manufactured and made into sheets in Japan, and the Tyranno fibers were manufactured in Japan and made into mats in the United States. Ibid.1
