A Trainer for a New Century

The U.S. Air Force recently announced the winner of its T-X competition, designed to replace the aging T-38 Talon jet trainers that will have been in service for fifty years by the time they are replaced in 2030.

The contract was awarded to a joint effort between Boeing and Sweden’s Saab aerospace group, the only original design in the competition. The win is a big victory for Boeing, which until recently had been crowded out of the defense business.
