The US Air Force has given Boeing a $9.3 million contract to produce 434 Joint Direct Attack Munition kits which could turn 1,000-pound and 2,000-pound bombs into precision munitions. These are due for delivery by March 2002 and many will probably be used in the Afghan Air War. The Air Force has given Boeing a $27.7 million contract to build five improved AWACS radars to be installed on existing E-3 aircraft. All five should be delivered by Dec 2005.--Stephen V Cole
