Boeing, General Dynamics lose appeal of A-12 contract
A U.S. appeals court ruled on Tuesday that the U.S. government was justified in canceling the A-12 attack jet for the U.S. Navy.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit also ruled that Boeing and General Dynamics must pay the government $2.8 billion.

The $2.8 billion consists of $1.35 billion both companies were awarded along with $1.45 billion in interest that has accrued while the case was fought out in courts for the past 18 years.
