Finmeccanica has received a potential $335 million contract from Italy’s ministry of defense for the addition of nine Aermacchi M-346 aircraft to be operated by that country’s air force.
With the contract, Italy increased its order of M-346 aircraft to 18 with deliveries scheduled to start within this year and end by 2018, Finmeccanica said Tuesday.
