Washington: US President Donald Trump announced Friday that Boeing has been awarded a major contract for the Air Force’s high-tech next-generation F-47 fighter plane.
The contract is aimed at continuing the development of the replacement for the F-22 stealth warplane — which has been in operation for some two decades — with a new, more advanced aircraft that will be able to operate alongside uncrewed drones.
“After a rigorous and thorough competition between some of America’s top aerospace companies, the Air Force is going to be awarding the contract for the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) platform to Boeing,” Trump told reporters at the Oval Office.
