Boeing has secured $110.2 million in new Pentagon contracts supporting both US and allied military aircraft.
The awards cover four major areas: upgrading Qatar’s F-15 jets, software support for the V-22 Osprey fleet, logistics for Germany’s P-8A Poseidon aircraft, and delivery of Apache equipment for Kuwait.
Qatar’s F-15 modernization program, worth $55.8 million, will integrate new electronic warfare capabilities. Work in St. Louis is scheduled through August 2027, with $28.3 million financed via the US Foreign Military Sales program. The Qatar Emiri Air Force currently fields 36 F-15s.
For the V-22 Osprey, Boeing’s joint venture with Bell received $16.5 million to maintain software for US Air Force, Marine Corps, and Navy platforms. The project runs until December 2028 at Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, and includes $12 million from the 2025 defense budget. Around 460 V-22s remain in US service since entering operations in 2007.
Germany’s P-8A Poseidon patrol aircraft will benefit from a $7.6-million support contract, including training and maintenance at Nordholz Naval Air Base, with completion expected by September 2026. The deal builds on Berlin’s 2021 purchase of eight P-8As.
In Mesa, Arizona, Boeing will supply Kuwait with remanufactured AH-64E Apaches, a Longbow Crew Trainer, and ground equipment under a $30.3-million program scheduled through July 2028. The Kuwait Air Force is transitioning its 16 AH-64D Apaches to the upgraded AH-64E and adding eight new AH-64E Guardians.
These developments follow the US Air Force’s announcement that Boeing has commenced construction of the F-47 stealth fighter, designed to succeed the F-22 Raptor.
