South Korean president Kim Dae-jung formally approved the purchase of 40 Boeing F-15Ks on 28 May, clearing the way for the signing of a $4.2 billion contract with the US manufacturer. Kaiser Electronics, a Rockwell Collins business, has meanwhile been selected by Boeing to supply the F-15K cockpit display suite. It will be produced in conjunction with Korea-based LG Innotek, and will include three flat panel colour displays, four multipurpose displays and a wide field of view head-up display.
