The U.S. Air Force and Boeing have revised the acquisition strategy for the T-7A Red Hawk, aiming to meet operational and training requirements while replacing the aging fleet of T-38C Talon aircraft.
Boeing has reached a significant milestone in its T-7A Red Hawk program, delivering the final Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) test aircraft to the U.S. Air Force.
The Boeing T-7A Red Hawk achieved three recent milestones, propelling the advanced pilot trainer for the U.S. Air Force forward.
