I can't imagine Boeing would give up after helping overturn the Northrop contract win.

From the St. Louis Biz Journal:

The Boeing Co. will reportedly stay in the competition for a hotly contested $35 billion contract from the U.S. Air Force to replace the service branch's refueling tankers, according to media reports.

Boeing has disputed the Air Force's decision to award the KC-X tanker contract to a team composed of Northrop Grumman Corp. and European Aeronautic Defence and Space Co., the French-German parent of Airbus.

Officials from Boeing and Northrop Grumman met Tuesday with government officials at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio.
