The US Air Force (USAF) is asking for engine proposals for its Boeing F-15EX programme, a few months after saying it would grant a sole-source award to GE Aviation for 480 F110 jet turbines.
The USAF received pushback on its sole-source plan from Pratt & Whitney (P&W). That company’s F100 engine powers the service’s fleet of legacy F-15C/D and E fighters.

I often wonder about GE in general. Over many years I have read how they are one of those companies with so many back doors into the Fed's that they get sweetheart deals that no other company could ever hope to receive. A bit off topic, but this is a conspiracy site.
