GKN Wins Key X-47B contract - But Will J-UCAS Survive?
Posted on: Jan. 16th, 2006 || www.defenseindustrydaily.com

Dispite recent rumours the J-UCAS program might be cancelled, GKN Aerospace Products has been contracted to produce the composite skins, covers and doors for the X-47B Pegasus, the naval UCAV under the J-UCAS program.

If the J-UCAS program survives the Quadrennial Defense Review budget cuts, the total value of the contract would exceed $500M.
