Locations in Millersville, Maryland and Marion, Massachusetts will handle the remaining work.

The TB-37 MFTA is the next generation passive and active sonar receiver, according to the U.S. Navy.
The TB-37 MFTA “significantly” contributes to the capability of surface ships to “detect, localize, and prosecute undersea threats,” and is a “critical” sensor to a combat-systems suite, the Navy said on the DOD website.
