Boeing frustrated with delays in US approvals for Gulf fighter sales

Boeing Co (BA.N) is “a little frustrated” with delays in getting U.S. government approvals for fighter jet sales to countries in the Gulf region, but hopes to see movement on those deals early next year, a senior Boeing executive said on Monday. Jeff Kohler, Boeing’s vice president for international business development, told reporters the government review process had taken longer than expected. Boeing generally will not discuss specific buyers since arms sales are negotiated between governments.
