General Dynamics Secures Defense Work

According to the Department of Defense, “General Dynamics (NYSE: GD) is being awarded an $11, 126, 773 firm-fixed-price modification to existing previously awarded contract (N00024-10-C-5141) for the production of Aegis gun and guided missile directors (MK82 Mod 0) and Aegis Director Controllers (MK 200 Mod 0).  The MK 82 director serves to position the fire control system antenna to a commanded and stabilized position in space for the purpose of illuminating a target.  The director controller MK 200 houses the solid-state servo-amplifiers that provide the servo drive signals that position the director to the desired target position.  Work will be performed in Burlington, Vt., and is expected to be completed by July 2013.  Contract funds will not expire at the end of the current fiscal year. The Naval Sea Systems Command, Washington, D.C., is the contracting activity.”
