Raytheon (NYSE: RTN) has won a $67.4 million U.S. Navy contract modification to provide design and engineering services for a sensor-netting system, Raytheon announced Friday.
The Cooperative Engagement Capability system detects and tracks airborne threats including cruise missiles and both manned and unmanned aircraft.
The CEC is based on a military communication system that uses GPS navigation.
In July 2011 the Navy awarded Raytheon a similar $11 million contract to provide CEC systems for the E-2D Hawkeye aircraft.
