Boeing Co. has received a $676.6 million modification to an existing contract for the production of F/A-18E and F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter aircraft for the U.S. Navy.

The modification, announced Wednesday by the Department of Defense, provides for the manufacture of six lot 41 F/A-18E and eight F/A-18F fighter jets. The production run is expected to be completed by February 2019.

Well I guess we got word on that report that Mattis commissioned comparing the Super Hornet to the F-35.

Words don't matter in defense procurement.  You MUST follow the money!
