Peru: Finmeccanica 100mln-euro contract with defence ministry

Finmeccanica-Alenia Aermacchi signed a 100 million euro contract with the Ministry of Defence of Peru for that country’s purchase of two C-27J Spartan aircraft. The contract, which brings the number of those planes ordered by the Peru Fuerza Aerea (FAP) up to four, includes integrated logistical support and technological assistance. The aircraft were chosen for their ability to operate securely and efficiently, at a competitive price, in all the country’s operational scenarios, including on unprepared Andean runways and numerous local airports.
