**Subject:** Changed delivery plan for Kestrel unit — IMPORTANT

Hello,

We need to move the regular delivery of the Kestrel unit from week 38 to week 44. The reason is that an unusually small proportion of the units are approved at final inspection.

As an alternative, we can deliver a smaller express shipment in week 40. This requires the customer to approve a temporary deviation from the surface-adhesion quality requirement (requirement YS-14). The express shipment is enough for the first integration test but not for the entire planned series.

We need a decision on the express option by week 36 at the latest in order to book line time.

Kind regards
Tove Ahlgren
