Lockheed Martin has been awarded a firm-fixed-price and cost-plus-fixed-fee contract by the US Department of Defense (US DoD) for the supply of 12 additional F-16 C/D Block 50 multirole fighters to the Royal Air Force of Oman (RAFO).

Under the estimated $600m foreign military sale contract, the company will supply ten F-16 C single-seat jets and two F-16 D double-seat jets along with the provision of support equipment, technical orders and integrated logistics support.

Currently, the air force operates 12 F-16 fighter jets purchased from the US in 2002 and the current order will take the total number of F-16 fighters operated by the RAFO to 24.
