General Dynamics to Appeal A-12 Decision
FALLS CHURCH, Va. – The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit today denied a request for a rehearing of the Federal Circuit’s prior decision sustaining the government’s default termination of the A-12 aircraft contract to which General Dynamics (NYSE: GD) and The Boeing Company were parties with the Navy.
General Dynamics disagrees with this most recent decision and continues to believe that the government’s default termination was not justified. The company also believes that the ruling provides significant grounds for appeal, and intends to petition the U.S. Supreme Court for review.
General Dynamics, headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia, employs approximately 92,300 people worldwide. The company is a market leader in business aviation; land and expeditionary combat systems, armaments and munitions; shipbuilding and marine systems; and information systems and technologies.
