Boeing Secures $213 Million Navy Contract for P-8A Aircraft Modification

The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA) has received a $213 million contract modification from the U.S. Navy to support the reconfiguration of four P-8A Multi-mission Maritime aircraft. The work is being performed on behalf of an unspecified customer under the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program.
