Northrop Grumman MQ-4C

Planned investments for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) include several key procurements across the domains of air mobility, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), training, air combat capability, and unmanned systems.

Northrop Grumman and the U.S. Navy are in the midst of a series of upgrades to the MQ-4 Triton uncrewed aircraft fleet.

Northrop Grumman's high-altitude, long-endurance uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) has arrived at the Northern Territory’s RAAF Base Tindal in Australia.

Oslo plans to spend an extra $56 billion on defense over the next 12 years, with surveillance of the High North and Arctic seen as a priority.

Boeing has been awarded a $139.5 million contract to enhance the Royal Australian Air Force P-8A Poseidon with the Increment 3 Blk. 2 upgrade.

The commitment to buy the fourth aircraft stops short of Australia’s original plan to buy seven MQ-4Cs, with a goal of operating two simultaneous patrols.

The U.S. Navy wants to end the Northrop Grumman MQ-4C Triton buy at 22, far short of the program of record as it looks to procure other uncrewed systems.

History suggests the military aviation program outlined by defense officials on March 13 is unlikely to survive the appropriations process intact.

A decades-old concept for a ubiquitous battlefield network concept is starting to become reality.

The U.S. Marine Corps is halving its planned 2021 buy of F-35Bs to 10 jets, while the Navy is purchasing three fewer F-35Cs than in the previous year’s budget projection.
