ST. LOUIS, Feb. 23, 2021 \u2014<\/strong>\u00a0A new era in aircraft design and build has begun as the first U.S. portion of the T-7A Red Hawk advanced trainer has officially entered the Boeing [NYSE: BA<\/a>] jet\u2019s state-of-the-art production line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The training jet, designated the eT-7A Red Hawk by the U.S. Air Force because of its digital heritage, was fully designed using 3D model-based definition and data management systems developed at Boeing during the last two decades. The T-7A Red Hawk employed the digital engineering and design of the Boeing T-X aircraft that went from firm concept to first flight in just 36 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Advanced Pilot Training System also incorporates leading-edge ground-based live and virtual simulators to give students and instructors a \u201creal as it gets\u201d experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September 2018, the U.S. Air Force awarded Boeing a $9.2 billion contract to supply 351 advanced trainer aircraft and 46 associated ground-based training simulators. Saab is teamed with Boeing on the trainer and provides the aft fuselage of the jet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
