(Reuters) -British defence group BAE Systems said on Monday it expects to recognise 4.6 billion pounds ($6.17 billion) from a UK government deal in which Turkey bought 20 Eurofighter Typhoon jets.
As part of the deal, BAE will manufacture airframe components, conduct final assembly of the aircraft and lead weapons integration activities in Lancashire, UK.
The company said that the weapons package will be provided by European missile maker MBDA, in which BAE holds a 37.5% stake.
