12 April 2021
by Gareth Jennings
Norway’s procurement of five Boeing P-8A Poseidons took a major leap forward on 12 April, with the announcement by the manufacturer that assembly of the first maritime multimission aircraft (MMA) at its facilities near Seattle, Washington, had begun.
The 737-800 fuselage built by Spirit Aerosystems in Wichita, Kansas, arrived by rail at Boeing’s Renton plant on 12 April. It will be mated to 737-900 wings and other flight systems on Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ 737 production line, ahead of delivery to Boeing’s Defense, Space & Security at nearby Puget Sound for the installation of military systems, testing, and customer handover.
