Subject: Official Information request - P8 Poseidon Purchase

Dear Ministry of Defence,

Under the Official Information Act, I would like to request the information surrounding the process around the procurement of the replacement for the RNZAF’s P3 Orion aircraft.
Specifically, what were the advantages of choosing the P8 Poseidon and what other aircraft were competing against the P8?

Yours faithfully,

Iain Forsyth
