- GSA Assisted Acquisition Services Defense issued the task order under the ASTRO IDIQ contract
- The award covers one base year and six option years
- HII’s Mission Technologies segment logged $760 million in second-quarter revenue
HII has received a $2.2 billion task order to deliver surveillance, tracking and intelligence services to U.S. Southern Command.
The General Services Administration’s Assisted Acquisition Services Defense organization issued the award under the ASTRO indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract. The task order runs one base year with six option years.
HII will perform the work under the Surveillance, Tracking, Intelligence, Network Services, Global Reconnaissance, Analysis and Interceptions, or STINGRAI, program.
What Will HII’s STINGRAI Task Order Deliver for SOUTHCOM?
HII’s mission technologies division will lead an integrated team, which will deliver intelligence gathering capabilities, advanced technologies and all-domain platforms to SOUTHCOM and partner countries.
STINGRAI is intended to sharpen SOUTHCOM’s ability to detect, monitor and disrupt illicit activity in Central America, South America and the Caribbean. HII said the program supports the command’s work countering transnational criminal organizations, drug cartels and drug trafficking organizations, giving commanders greater flexibility to respond to shifts in regional security conditions.
Intelligence collection aimed at drug trafficking networks is one of the threads running through the Potomac Officers Club’s 2026 Intel Summit, set for Sept. 24. Carrie Thompson of the Drug Enforcement Administration will deliver a keynote, joined by Tim Kosiba, deputy director of the National Security Agency; Ryan Lewis, chief architect for signals intelligence at the National Reconnaissance Office; and Maj. Gen. Brian Sidari of the Space Force. Register now to hear directly from the leaders shaping the intelligence community’s collection and analysis priorities.
Andy Green, executive vice president of HII, president of the mission technologies division and an eight-time Wash100 Award winner, said the task order addresses SOUTHCOM’s need for “clearer visibility, faster decision making, and the ability to stay ahead of rapidly changing threats.”
How Did HII Mission Technologies Perform in the Second Quarter?
The mission technologies segment generated $760 million in revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. That figure marked a 3.9 percent decline from the prior-year period.
HII attributed the decrease to lower volumes in all-domain operations and global security. Higher volumes in warfare systems and unmanned systems partially offset the drop.
The company reported $3.4 billion in quarterly revenue, up 10.9 percent year over year. HII booked $6.7 billion in new contract awards during the quarter and closed the period with a backlog of roughly $57.3 billion.
What Prior ISR Task Order Did HII Mission Technologies Secure?
The mission technologies division won a $3 billion task order in October 2024 covering logistics services, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance operations, and next-generation technology. The award is known as LOGIX.
HII said at the time that the work supports the Department of War and its mission partners and aligns with the Joint All-Domain Command and Control strategy.
