Boeing is no longer in the running to build the Air Force’s E-4B Nightwatch “Doomsday” plane replacement, leaving Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) as the only known remaining competitor.
In a statement to Breaking Defense on Friday, a company spokesperson confirmed that the aerospace giant’s bid is no longer under consideration by the Air Force. Reuters first reported Boeing’s elimination.
