It will make its first flight towards the end of July, when it will ferry to EDW. Supposedly the press will be notified...we'll see. It will then undergo envelope expansion test flights at EDW b/c of airframe changes from Block 20/30, and then the MP-RTIP sensors will be installed in 2/10, and sensor testflights will commence after that.

Cool ;)

Block 40 rollout ceremony and media day this morning. This is a slightly larger variant, that will carry the MP-RTIP radar system.
Cool shot, Alan!   <thumbsup>
