Air Force may award second 3DELRR integration contract in August

摘要

The Air Force may award a second company a Three-Dimensional Expeditionary Long-Range Radar integration contract next month, a spokesman confirmed today. The contract, if awarded, would include production options, service spokesman Kenneth Waters told Inside Defense in an email today, saying the Air Force will "potentially" select a second contractor in August. The Air Force in March awarded Lockheed Martin an $8.5 million 3DELRR integration contract, which included options to produce up to 35 radars. At the time, the service left open the possibility it would make a second award to either Northrop Grumman or CEA Technologies, the program's two remaining bidders.
