U.S. Navy awards Lockheed Martin nearly $32 million contract

SALINA — The U.S. Navy has awarded Lockheed Martin a $31.7 million contract for additional sonar-detection systems.

That’s according to a list of contracts posted this week on the website of the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD).

Lockheed’s mission systems and training unit in Salina will handle two-thirds of the work, while company locations in Millersville, Md. and Marion, Mass. will work on the remaining parts of the contract.

The Navy expects to complete the work in July 2016.

The contract represents a modification to a contract the Navy previously awarded for the production of nine multi-function towed array (MFTA), described as “the next generation passive and active sonar receiver,” on the DOD website.

The TB-37/U 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, according to the DOD website.
