Under the contract, Lockheed‘s missiles and fire control division will build and deliver THAAD components under fixed-price incentive contract line-item numbers, with work to be performed in Texas, California, Alabama and Arkansas through Dec. 1, 2029, the Department of Defense said Monday. The MDA obligated $284.9 million in fiscal 2024 and 2025 procurement funds at the time of award.
Lockheed received the base contract, worth 273.5 million, in 2017. The modification increases the contract value to $10.4 billion.
