The contract involves purchases for the Navy and foreign military sales. It runs through December 2027 and will be performed in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania; Salt Lake City, Utah; Andover, Massachusetts; Bloomington, Indiana; Manassas, Virginia and Port Orchard, Washington. It also comes with options that will boost its value to $807.6 million and extend the competition date to December 2033, if exercised.
