The mid-life modernisation programme for the Boeing 707-based aircraft comprises modifications to the airframe structure, mechanical and electrical systems as well as mission equipment. The deal for France's four E-3Fs is worth $354 million, says Boeing, with Air France Industries (AFI) acting as a subcontractor for the airframer.
Work has begun on the first aircraft, which is due to be completed in 2014. The remaining three aircraft are due to follow in 2016.
