Sumario:The Run 2 operation and availability for the LHC RF system are presented, including year-to-year performance comparisons. In addition, the evolution of the present RF system is discussed, with improvements in diagnostics, operation, and software being highlighted. Lessons learned from the Run 2 RF performance are reviewed, with a focus both on limitations that were addressed during Run 2 and limitations that may have implications for Run 3 and beyond. Finally, an overview of operational parameters, spares management, and long-term developments is presented.
