The Australian Government has announced an agreement with Boeing Defense Australia. Under the agreement, the company will provide technical support to the E-7A Wedgetail AEW (Airborne Early Warning) aircraft in the Royal Australian Air Force inventory. The agreement, which will continue until 2025, is estimated to cost US $ 1 billion.
Earlier in 2014, Australia had signed an E-7A Wedgetail technical and logistical support agreement with Boeing Defense Australia, to be valid until 2019, amounting to US $ 764,458 million.
