Sierra Nevada has received a potential 12-year, $991.3 million contract from the U.S. Army to serve as the lead systems integrator for the military branch’s High Accuracy Detection and Exploitation System.
The Army said Thursday that HADES is the service’s future long-range aircraft that will support aerial intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions and facilitate deployment worldwide within days.
“This is a great day for the continuing effort to modernize the Army’s aerial intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance collection strategy,” said Doug Bush, assistant secretary of the Army for acquisition, logistics and technology.
“The thoughtful and disciplined execution of the HADES program strategy will deliver the transformational capabilities we need for the Army’s next-generation aerial ISR aircraft,” added Bush, a previous Wash100 awardee.
The initial award on the HADES indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract is worth approximately $93.5 million.
In 2020, the Army started work on the HADES program to replace its legacy fleet of turboprop planes, including the Guardrail, Airborne Reconnaissance Low aircraft and the Enhanced Medium Altitude Reconnaissance and Surveillance System.
