Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) has been awarded a potential five-year, $424 million contract to sustain an integrated targeting and pilotage technology on the U.S. Army‘s fleet of AH-64D/E Apache attack helicopters.
The Army has obligated $31.8 million at the time of award and the one-year base period of performance for the Modernized Target Acquisition Designation Sight/Pilot Night Vision Sensor sustainment program runs through December 2016, Lockheed said Wednesday.
