Raytheon (NYSE: RTN) has received a $235 million initial task order from the U.S. Army to modernize the Phased Array Tracking Radar Intercept on Target system.
The award represents the first of five annual orders the Army would issue annually as part of a potential five-year, $2.3 billion Patriot system-of-systems engineering support contract the Defense Department unveiled Tuesday, Raytheon said Wednesday.
