SEOUL - U.S. aerospace giant Boeing and Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) signed a memorandum of agreement Nov. 3 for the South Korean aircraft manufacturer to design, develop and manufacture the conformal weapon bay (CWB) for the F-15 Silent Eagle, Boeing announced.
The CWB is an internal weapon carriage structure that will minimize the stealthy fighter jet's radar signature and increase its tactical options, the company said in a news release.

The F-15SE would be equipped with two internal bays - one on each side - and is designed for multiple carriage configurations, including advanced air-to-air and air-to-surface munitions, Boeing said.
The CWB is an option for any potential customer who requires the capability, and it can be installed on either new or existing F-15 series jets. The modular CWB also can be removed from the F-15 when it is not required, enabling the aircraft to be transformed into an external configuration within a matter of hours, according to the release.
"KAI is a leading aerospace company with world-class core technical capabilities that complement Boeing's," said Roger Besancenez, Boeing's F-15 program vice president. "We are excited about KAI's growing role on the development and production of key technologies for Boeing aircraft."
Boeing Korea President Pat Gaines said, "Korean industry is an important partner and supplier to Boeing. This agreement with KAI will strengthen and deepen a mutually beneficial relationship."
KAI builds the wings and forward fuselage for South Korea's F-15K program. KAI also works with Boeing on other programs, including the AH-64D Apache attack helicopter, the Peace Eye airborne early warning and control plane, the A-10 wing replacement program, and on Boeing's commercial airplane programs.
Boeing is offering the F-15SE for South Korea's third-phase F-X fighter acquisition program; bidding is to open in 2012. The F-X III calls for acquiring 40 to 60 aircraft with stealth functions.
Other key contenders include Lockheed Martin with the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter and the Eurofighter Typhoon
