SEATTLE – Boeing is working to make key radar and systems decisions for the U.S. Navy’s upcoming EPX signals-intelligence contest, and plans to finalize its team by year’s end. The Boeing bid is founded on the 737-800-based P-8A maritime patrol aircraft under development for the Navy. Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman also are competing for EPX, which is expected to be a $6 billion - $9 billion contest covering up to 26 aircraft.
SEATTLE – Boeing plans to put “power-on” the first P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol variant of the 737-800 at its Renton, Wash, factory this week in preparation for roll-out, which is expected in early July, slightly ahead of the original plan. Two-thirds of the systems had been installed on the first aircraft, T-1, on June 5 and roll-out is expected to take place just ahead of delivery of the second P-8 fuselage from Spirit Aerosystems in Wichita, Kan.
SEATTLE – Boeing, Insitu and the U.S. Navy are studying a variant of the ScanEagle unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that could be air-dropped from a P-8A or other aircraft to detect and stealthily track submarines over many hours.
