SALINA — Lockheed Martin Rotary and Mission Systems in Salina recently won a more than $60 million contract from the U.S. Navy.
This pact provides for the production, integration, testing, inspection, fleet introduction, and fielding of four operational-test program sets (OTPS), as well as associated non-recurring engineering, program management, logistics, and engineering development models to support the AN/APY-9 radar avionics line replaceable modules (LRM), according to a Sept. 23 contract announcement from the U.S. Department of Defense. It will also support the risk-management framework, authority to operate or assess only, and cyber test requirements for the E-2D Radar OTPSs to be used at the depot-level to provide test and repair capabilities for the LRMs using the electronic Consolidated Automated Support System (eCASS), eCASS Power Augmentation Test Set, and specialized test equipment.
Work will be performed in Lockheed’s facility in Salina, just north of Syracuse (67 percent); Baltimore, Maryland (23 percent); and El Segundo, California (10 percent), and is expected to be completed in August 2029, per the contract announcement.
Fiscal 2023 aircraft procurement (Navy) funds totaling $643,420 and fiscal 2022 aircraft procurement (Navy) funds of $59,433,039 will be obligated at the time of the award — all of which will expire at the end of the current fiscal year. This contract was not competitively procured pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1. The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division in Lakehurst, New Jersey was the contracting authority.
