Boeing Ramps Up Production of Military and Commercial Versions of B-737
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reports that, due to the requirements of the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Boeing will produce the Navy's P-8 Multi-Mission Maritime Aircraft (MMA) in a separate building adjacent to the Renton, Washington plant where the commercial B-737s are now assembled. The P-8 is a military version of the B-737-800ERX and is designed to replace the P-3 Orion, which has been in service since November 1959 (P-3A) and August 1969 (P-3C).
