Australian defense chief says military '100 percent' behind Boeing's Super Hornet jets
The head of Australia's defense force, Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston, told a Senate inquiry Wednesday that the military is 100 percent supportive of the Super Hornet order. And Australia has to pay A$400 million in penalties if the deal is canceled.
"It's an awesome capability ... that is genuinely better than anything around at the moment, other than an F-22 or F-35," Houston said, also referring to Lockheed's F-22 Raptor.
