Officials from the U.S. Air Force will meet executives from Boeing today and brief them on the decision to award the Long Range Strike Bomber (LRS-B) contract to Northrop Grumman.
Rules allow Boeing to have 10 days to deliberate whether to file a protest against the award after having been briefed.
The aerospace giant said earlier in an internal staff memo that it would “rigorously deliberate” whether to protest the contract award.
