The Department of Defense said Tuesday the company's rotary and mission systems unit will provide in-service lifetime support for Aegis weapons, equipment and computer programs being used by Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Norway and Spain.

The cost-plus-fixed-fee, cost-only contract has an initial value of $731.1.M and Lockheed will receive $113.6M in FMS funds at the time of award.
Under the award, the company will engineer, integrate and test combat systems, support logistics activity and provide in-country support to the international defense customers that have deployed Aegis.
