Thanks, EB. I wonder how the Pentagon is going to deal with the fact a contract was signed with Northrop?

Would be simpler just to give the contract to Boeing and let them choose a price to bill the Government. Boeing first tried bribery, then used their bought & paid for lackeys in Congress to stay in the running, nothing will stop them.

Sounds like the America-hater free-traders arent gonna be happy with this.
Its been a bad week or so for the free-traders....first Wal Mart plans to buy local US ag-products instead of Commie Chinese and NAFTA ag-products....now this non-American tanker deal is getting re-bid

Why don’t we just sell the Air Force to Boeing, instead? We can use the money to bail out GM. ;)

Why do they even waste time with a bid? Why don’t they just give it to Boeing, it has already been paid for?

Boeing bought and paid for it. Lets make aircraft manufacturing a true monopoly and legislate Boeing the only contractor for DOD.

NG is going to be able to rebid too. What if they win again? There will be a few Freepers who will go nuts.

the contract with Northrop-Grumman-Airbus was contingent on survival of protest challenge.

John McCain must be going nuts right now. He wanted Airbus/Northrop Grumman to get the contract. He was upset that Boeing even protested. The deal had been made.

Sec. 21.6 Withholding of award and suspension of contract performance.
Where a protest is filed with GAO, the contracting agency may be required to withhold award and to suspend contract performance. The requirements for the withholding of award and the suspension of contract performance are set forth in 31 U.S.C. 3553 (c) and (d).
