The event was attended by Australian and U.S. defense officials, who highlighted the continued development of both the Royal Australian Air Force’s and U.S. Navy’s MQ-4C Triton program.
Northrop Grumman began building the first Australian Triton in October 2020 at its Moss Point, Miss., facility, and met another major milestone in December 2021 when the fuselage and one-piece wing were mated in Palmdale, Calif.
Australia is scheduled to receive the aircraft in 2024 after production is completed in 2023.
