The value of the deal is $102 million and the planes will be delivered in winter of 2023.

“The Government of Canada is committed to providing the Canadian Armed Forces with the equipment they need at the best value for money. We look forward to accepting these two aircraft as they represent an important first step in eventually replacing the capability currently provided by the CC150 Polaris fleet,” Defence Minister Anita Anand said in the news release.
