Will cut jet plane costs, create new jobs: Lockheed to Trump
Lockheed Martin told US President-elect Donald Trump that it’s close to a deal to lower costs “significantly’’ for the next lot of its F-35 fighter jet and will boost hiring at the factory where it's made. This came after Trump earlier targeted Lockheed Martin and the F-35 programme, the costliest US weapons system, stating its cost was out of control.
