Northrop to Celebrate
Northrop Grumman will hold a celebration for its win of the US Air Force KC-45 aerial tanker contract.
The celebration will occur on Friday at the El Segundo headquarters of Northrop's Integrated Systems sector.
The event could be viewed as part of the PR war going on between Northrop and its losing rival, Boeing, which is lobbying to overturn the Pentagon's decision to award the contract to Northrop and its European partner EADS.
