In addition to supporting the aircraft sustainment in all the areas, the new industry partnership will also provide associated training to add highest operational availability to the German P-8A fleet.

According to Boeing, the P-8A programme will employ up to 250 people in Germany.

Delivery of the first batch of P-8A aircraft to Germany is expected in 2024.

ESG CEO Christoph Otten said: “This agreement underlines our joint performance promise and our commitment to provide the Bundeswehr with urgently needed capabilities.

“At the same time, we see this as a special obligation to proactively contribute our capabilities and competencies to the programme as a long-standing technology and innovation partner of the German Armed Forces and Naval Aviation Command, particularly in the areas of systems integration, aviation certification or secure communication.”
