The Air Force has awarded the Lockheed Martin A-10 Prime Team $40.4 million to complete the engineering and manufacturing development phase of the precision engagement program for the A-10C, the digitally enhanced version of the A-10 Warthog. According to a company release, the team, which includes Northrop Grumman, BAE Systems, and Southwest Research Institute, will continue its work through May 2008 to develop the PE software suite and support USAF flight testing.
The B-52 bombers that flew off the coast of Venezuela on Oct. 15 were accompanied by Marine Corps F-35s as part of a so-called “Bomber Attack Demonstration,” according to new images and information from the Pentagon.
