So that's 20:30 UK time..!!!

Are you sure? EDT is -4:00, so it would be 21:15 UK if I am not mistaken.
22:15 for the rest of Western Europe

I'll bet all we get (if anything) is a concept drawing or artist depiction of one of the winning bird, if that.

If they cared about us Avnerds they would have them both fly over together, then the winner would come back for a second solo pass... Now THAT would be a way to unveil what taxpayers are paying for!

Doh...yep your correct...cannot even tell the time now...getting old..! a reply to: spaceman42

Gosh, this is absolutely killing me - Just found out the outcome of the contract(s)

The woman said something about the name of the company...rather than companies.

So did Defense News and CNBC - must have had their news held until press conference time, but the press conference was late.

Looks like I guessed correctly!

"Compress time and space" ....someone start a new topic...gotta go having tea with the Israeli defense minister.

NG swept the contract. I'm very disappointed by this...

DoD peer reviews, my ass.

CALLED IT!

Your earlier post said it all, there would be no controversy if Lockmart won.

I all of this emphasis on independent cost estimates, etc, as tacit implication that this is "punishment" to Boeing for the KC-46 and to LockMart for the F-35.

Well, the little birds I posted about a bit back were right.

Okay, Zaph. A surprise?

Well.....no visuals......

Well, I've got to say. That wasn't much of anything we didn't already know about already. These PCs never fail to under-impress, no?
