Boeing Scores First Full-Rate Production Order for MH-139A Grey Wolf

Boeing has secured its first full-rate production order for the MH-139A Grey Wolf helicopter. This milestone comes after the US Air Force declared initial operational capability earlier this year.

The contract, announced on October 1, is for four additional helicopters, bringing the total number of Grey Wolves under contract to 42. Boeing has already delivered 27 aircraft to date.

Kathleen Jolivette, Boeing's vice-president and general manager of Vertical Lift Programs, said that this award demonstrates the programme's readiness and supports ongoing fleet modernisation.
