Something positive to start the year...
Additional three British and seven American P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft ordered

Boeing has been awarded a $1.2bn contract for the manufacture and delivery of 10 Lot 9 full-rate production P-8A aircraft, seven for the US Navy and three for the Royal Air Force.

The UK intends to procure 9 of the aircraft in total and had already ordered two. This brings the orders up to 5.
