however the government have a broad strategy to support Australian defence contractors and build capability for home grown products and local content/construction of overseas purchased designs. So I doubt this is a loss to BAE or QHL of any import.
No doubt there are plenty of other opportunities in the wings and hopefully QHL will be getting more work from Boeing who are pushing refurb of F15's, more sales of FA18's and more sales of the Growler FA18/G
