    BAE Systems has won a five-year contract with the US Navy to repair, maintain and modernise nine destroyers and cruisers in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The defence group’s contract win is a continuation of work BAE has been performing on the same type of ships in Hawaii under a previous seven-year contract .so I doubt that is any new jobs

    Anyway 99.99% of the employees will be Americans/Hawians. BAE is just a title, the only winners will be the shareholders both in UK/USA
