For purposes of evaluation, would you please indicate a potential delivery schedule for (a) An initial quantity of 100 aircraft and (b) an option for up to an additional 100 aircraft in increments of 25 units.
Further, if successful, would the PZL and PZI be willing to consider entering into discussions regarding technology transfer and licencing?
Thank you,
