Singapore has chosen Boeing’s F-15SG as the country’s next generation replacement fighter, awarding a contract to the company for 12 of the fighters with an option for eight additional aircraft at a future date. The F-15SG is an advanced version of the USAF F-15E Strike Eagle. Boeing officials say the company will begin delivering the aircraft in 2008, allowing the Republic of Singapore Air Force to start replacing its A-4SU Skyhawks.
Boeing received a $2.47 billion Air Force contract Nov. 25 for 15 more KC-46s, bringing to 183 the number of Pegasus tankers on contract to all customers, foreign and domestic. The new contract—for Lot 12 of the initially planned KC-46 buy—is to be completed by 2029.
