  • Now stating 42 months (from today) to enable a LRIP of 4 aircraft to enable a subsequent 2-year test campaign. Gosh, the BAE playbook and I’m sure it’ll go on rails 🫣

  • Looking at an all new small form factor engine for the twin-variant as the F124 fan diameter is too large.
Just curious.
Why do you hate Aeralis so much...?
