Новый Боинг на замену P-3 Orion
Приветствую !
The Pentagon announced Monday, June 14, 2004, that the Navy has awarded a Boeing Co. subsidiary a $3.89 billion contract to develop a long-range patrol plane to replace an aircraft that once was the sea service's main submarine hunter. Seen in an artist renditon released by Boeing, the new plane, called a Multimission Maritime Aircraft, is a derivative of the next-generation 737-800 with increased gross weight capability. It replaces the Lockheed P-3 Orion, a design that has been in use since 1962.
С уважением Владимир.
