British defence manufacturer BAE Systems has agreed a major new deal with the Gulf state of Oman.
The contract will see BAE provide Oman with 12 Typhoon aircraft and eight Hawk trainer aircraft by 2017.
Receiving this contract is an honour and is excellent news for both BAE Systems and the Eurofighter Typhoon consortium.
BAE Systems has a long history of working in Oman and we are delighted this contract will enable us to continue to work together.
We believe that Oman has now added the most advanced fighter jet and proven training aircraft, available in the world, to its military portfolio.
