Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) has received a $120.9 million contract modification from the U.S. Navy to provide an integrated undersea surveillance system as well as engineering services for a sonar system.

Work will occur in Manassas, Virginia and Clearwater, Florida through December 2017.

The Naval Sea Systems Command will obligate $12.6 million at the time of award from the military branch’s fiscal 2015 and 2016 shipbuilding conversion funds as well as fiscal 2016 and 2017 “other” procurement funds.
