| Military Aerospace Support is unique in the aerospace
industry – a single organization offering the full
spectrum of product and services to reduce life-cycle
costs and maximize readiness of military aircraft in service
with operators around the globe. This includes modernization
and upgrade initiatives; maintenance and modification
programs; training systems and services; spares and technical
data; and a wide variety of logistics services. These
capabilities have been leveraged on complex efforts such
as the C-130 Avionics Modernization Program, and broad
support packages such as FIRST for the F/A-18E/F Super
Hornet. |

| The C-17 Globemaster III is the most advanced, versatile
airlifter ever made. It is capable of flying long distances,
carrying 169,000 pounds of payload and landing on short,
austere runways close to front lines. As the U.S. Air
Force’s premier airlifter, C-17s have dropped millions
of humanitarian daily rations in missions over Afghanistan.
The United Kingdom is the C-17’s first international
customer. |

|
| The C-32A is a specially configured Boeing 757-200 for
the U.S. Air Force. The aircraft provides safe, reliable
worldwide airlift for the Vice President, U.S. Cabinet
members and other U.S. government officials. Four C-32As
are currently in service. |

|
| This modified 737-700C jetliner increases the logistical
capability of the U.S. Navy’s worldwide fleet. It
can be configured as an all-passenger, all-cargo or combination
passenger-cargo transport. Boeing delivered four C-40As
to the Navy in 2001 and will deliver two additional aircraft
in 2002. These aircraft have begun replacing the Navy’s
C-9 fleet of 29 aircraft. |

|
 |
|
| The C-40B is a specially modified Boeing Business Jet
that will provide high-performance, flexible and cost-effective
airlift support for the Commanders-in-Chief, senior government
leadership and team travel. The U.S. Air Force and Air
National Guard have ordered three aircraft, which are
scheduled to be delivered in 2002 and 2003. Additional
orders are anticipated to replace other aging aircraft. |

|
| The Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle could significantly
increase combat effectiveness while reducing the overall
cost of operations. The UCAV has a stealthy, tailless,
27-ft. airframe with a 34-ft. wingspan. Its initial mission
is to be the suppression of enemy air defenses. Because
of their size, lack of pilot interfaces and training requirements,
and long-term storage capability, UCAVs could cost 65
percent less to produce than a fighter or strike aircraft,
and up to 75 percent less to maintain. |

|
| The multimission Harrier II Plus added a multimode radar
system and next-generation weapons compatibility to the
aircraft’s proven vertical/short-takeoff-and-landing
capabilities. This aircraft is a product of a Boeing,
BAE Systems and Rolls-Royce team and is built for the
U.S. Marine Corps, and the Spanish and Italian navies.
Most recently, it has been called upon to serve in Operation
Enduring Freedom. |

|
| The F-15E Eagle is the world’s most capable multirole
fighter and the backbone of the U.S. Air Force fleet.
The F-15E carries payloads larger than any other tactical
fighter but retains the air-to-air capability of the single-mission
F-15C. It can operate around the clock and in any weather.
Since entering operational service, the F-15 has a perfect
air combat record with more than 101 victories and no
losses. Three other nations fly the F-15. |

|
| Boeing is teamed with Lockheed Martin, Pratt & Whitney
and the U.S. Air Force to develop the F-22 Raptor as a
replacement for the F-15C. The fast, agile, stealthy F-22
will take over the air superiority role with Air Combat
Command starting in 2005. The Air Force plans to procure
339 F-22s. Production is expected to run through 2013. |

|
| The F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is the cornerstone of U.S.
naval aviation and the nation’s newest, most advanced
strike fighter. Designed to perform both fighter (air-to-air)
and attack (air-to-surface, or strike) missions, the Super
Hornet provides all the capability, flexibility and performance
necessary to modernize the air or naval aviation forces
of any country. More than 70 of the 284 Super Hornets
on order for the U.S. Navy have been delivered on or ahead
of schedule. Production is expected to run through at
least 2012. |

| The two-seat T-45 Goshawk is the heart of the integrated
T-45 Training System, which the U.S. Navy employs to prepare
pilots for the fleet’s carrier-based jets. The system
includes advanced flight simulators, computer-assisted
instruction, a computerized training integration system
and logistics support. U.S. Navy and Marine Corps student
naval aviators train in the T-45 at Naval Air Stations
Meridian, Miss.; and Kingsville, Texas. |
