A little digging into 2019 budgets show the "Common Fleet Initiative" CFI entering service in late 2022 and wrapping up in 2024, though that may have been delayed with covid/supply chain issues.

Also interesting to note that Link 16 and SBD integration had been intended since 2005. This was in addition to the "Propulsion Upgrade Plan" PUP with TF34-GE-101 engines that was cancelled sometime in 2007 I believe.
