Boeing Goes Hunting for F-15EX Orders Abroad

Polish Showcase Put on to Advertise Boeing's Fave Fighter

Boeing put on a demonstration of its freshened-up Eagle at the MSPO International Defence Industry Exhibition, aiming to sell its F-15EX to Polish authorities. The successful F-15's latest successor has already proven a pretty solid seller in the fighter realm, offering buyers a top-of-the-line 4th gen fighter with all the modern fixin's, payloads, and avionics with a proven airframe that has stood the test of time. The -EX variant has already received the US Air Force's blessing, updating its fleet of older, aged F-15C and Ds as they creep ever closer to 45 years in service.

Leonardo Helicopter Training Academy Plays Host to Personnel

The first bunch of students from Malmstrom AFB made their way to the Leonardo Helicopters Training Academy to begin a 32-day course on the newest addition to the USAF's helicopter fleet. The MH-139 Grey Wolf is the latest and greatest from the Italian marque Leonardo, offering better performance and a more modern flight deck than ever before. Accordingly, it brings a whole host of operational demands for crew chiefs, aviators, and maintainers accustomed to older airframes. Those attending were selected from a range of personnel, with a variety of experience levels and time on station.
