By Bernie Cahiles-Magkilat American defense aircraft manufacturer Lockheed Martin is looking at opportunities of sourcing some of their requirements, particularly support services, from the Philippines once the government decides to tap their supply of fighter jets like F16 and Black Hawk helicopters. Randall L. Howard, Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company Integrated Fighter Group Director of Business Development, said in an interview with the Manila Business Bulletin they are prepared to support the government stressing that they have been working with country users of F16.
