Korth backs General Dynamics TFX choice over Boeing
Secretary of the Navy Fred Korth said he recommended General Dynamics’ TFX fighter without influence from McNamara or political forces.

Korth highlighted independent, joint Air Force Navy talks and the overruled evaluation boards in the prior process.
