“We believe the ministry’s evaluation of the competitors was fundamentally flawed and inaccurately assessed the cost and capability of the F/A-18 Super Hornet,” said Boeing vice president Debbie Rub.

Denmark’s Defense Minister Peter Christensen says Boeing will be given access to all materials related to the procurement evaluation and decision, as requested by Boeing.
