Greece will buy 30 additional F-16 Block 52+ aircraft, with an option for an additional 10 aircraft, to augment its current fleet of F-16 fighters, according to Lockheed Martin officials. The deal for the 30 aircraft is worth $1.2 billion to Lockheed. The company must deliver the new fighters by 2009. That’s good news for the Fort Worth crowd.
