USAF awards Boeing MOSA flight‑deck upgrade to keep C‑17 Globemaster III operational into the 2070s
The U.S. Air Force has awarded Boeing a contract to modernize the C‑17 Globemaster III flight deck with a modular open‑systems (MOSA) avionics upgrade. The retrofit addresses avionics obsolescence and is intended to sustain mission readiness and extend the fleet’s service into the 2070s (reports cite through 2070–2075).
