BERLIN/PARIS, July 2 (Reuters) – NATO will announce plans at next week’s Ankara summit to replace its ageing fleet of AWACS aircraft with GlobalEye surveillance planes from Sweden’s Saab, four sources familiar with the matter said.
NATO, whose members are due to meet in the Turkish capital on July 7 and 8, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Saab declined to comment.
