The total program value for the initial 30 aircraft is approximately $2 billion, with Lockheed Martin's portion estimated at about $1.2 billion. «Under this contract, we'll provide the latest in advanced technologies to ensure long-term mission success for our valued customer, the Greek air force,» said Ralph D. Heath, president of Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company. «It's especially gratifying that this order marks the 50th time an F-16 customer has come back to us for additional aircraft – establishing a record of customer satisfaction that may be unmatched in the military aircraft business.» The final Greek aircraft will be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2009.
