The U.S. Air Force will decide by December whether Boeing Co. will have to share a multibillion-dollar project to provide the next Air Force One jetliner for the president, the service said.
The Air Force has budgeted $1.6 billion for research through 2019 and is “working toward release” of a request for proposals early next year with a schedule to purchase the first aircraft in fiscal 2016, according to spokesman Charles Gulick.
