The company’s missiles and defense business in Tucson, Arizona, will provide an aviation laboratory and perform flight test, clearance and simulation work to address AMRAAM integration requirements, the Department of Defense said Thursday.
Raytheon will concurrently receive an initial $9.4 million task order with the basic award.
Aircraft models that will use the weapon are F-15, F-16, FA-18, F-22, F-35 and fighter platforms that may enter the USAF and Navy fleets through fiscal 2029.
Both service branches are obligating a total of $2.5 million at the time of award from fiscal 2021 research, development, test and evaluation funds.
The AF Life Cycle Management Center issued the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract through a sole-source contracting process.
