Fun: Boeing took the gold in the head-to-head competition with Dassault over which company would prevail in selling Singapore fighter aircraft. Singapore leaked word Tuesday that it had opted for Boeing’s F-15T over Dassault’s Rafale. The deal could be worth up to $1.7 billion, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. It will no doubt make Boeing’s St. Louis workers ecstatic to know the F-15 production line will continue, at least for another four years or so.
