The replacement of the F-18 has been extremely important to our government. As you know, this project has been going on for a long time—even before our government—and we committed to a competition to replace the current F-18s.
One of the problems we had was that we also had mission supply: We had our NORAD commitments and we had our NATO commitments. That's why it was important for us to be able to invest in our current F-18 fleet. We also bought additional aircraft of the same type from Australia, some of which are ready.
The total project is costing approximately $339 million for the upgrade. The upgrades we're doing are to the defensive suite and also to combat capability of the fighters. This will allow us to continue to be able to fly our missions and meet our commitments while we replace our future fighter capability.
There are currently three companies in the mix. Obviously, I can't talk more about that because they're in a very sensitive stage of that competition.
