A History Of Falcon 9/Heavy Booster Reuse every(?) booster the company has flown on a F9/FH by 2023: up to 19 launches of 4 boosters, the median booster had been launched about 12 times Data from planet4589.org/space/gcat/

a graph titled "Falcon Booster Reuse." It shows a plot tracking the usage of different Falcon rocket boosters over time from 2010 to 2023. The horizontal axis represents the year, while the vertical axis represents the number of booster uses, with a scale from 1 to 15. Each individual booster is labeled (e.g., B1003, B1004) and is represented by a unique line with incremental markers, showing each it was used. Lines for boosters begin at their first use and end at their last, with some lines extending further up, indicating a higher number of reuses. Two lines labeled 'max' and 'median' are shown in an inset in the upper left, showing the maximum and median uses of boosters across the fleet over time.

I remember how back in the day they were targeting a lifespan of 10 launches per booster. Seem to be well past that now.
