Lockheed Martin Owego wins nearly $30 million Navy order modification

OWEGO, N.Y. — Lockheed Martin Rotary and Mission Systems in Owego has been awarded a more than $29.5 billion firm-fixed-price modification to an order against a previously-issued basic ordering agreement. 

This adjustment exercises options to procure 228 Generation 3i/5i mission computers (MCs) (210 for the Navy, 11 for the government of Australia, four for the government of Saudi Arabia, and three for the government of Denmark); 210 Generation 3i/5i flight management computers (FMCs) (196 for the Navy, nine for Australia, three for Denmark, and two for Saudi Arabia), according to a March 27 contract announcement from the U.S. Department of Defense. The contract modification also procures 40 aircraft wiring kits; 1120 Lynx licenses; 4 Gm5i-MCs; and 541 RedHat licenses for the Navy in support of upgrading Generation III, V MCs and Generation VI MCs configuration to GEN 3i and 5i MC configuration, as well as Generation III and V FMCs configuration to GEN 3i and 5i FMC configuration for MH-60R/S aircraft retrofit.

Work will be performed in Owego (97 percent) and Clearwater, Florida (3 percent), and is expected to be completed in March 2026. Fiscal 2023 aircraft procurement (Navy) funds totaling nearly $27.1 million and foreign-military sales customer funds of $2.5 million will be obligated at the time of award — none of which will expire at the end of the current fiscal year. The Naval Air Systems Command in Patuxent River, Maryland is the contracting activity.
