Sierra Nevada Secures $183M SOCOM Contract to Build Aircraft Computer Interface

Sierra Nevada Corp. has secured a $183 million contract from U.S. Special Operations Command to produce an aircraft computer interface designed to enable communications between multiple contrasting systems.

The company will engineer and integrate tactical mission systems in an effort to help special forces implement the system-of-systems interface, the Department of Defense said Friday.

SOCOM awarded the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract on a sole-source basis and is obligating $1.9 million at the time of award from its fiscal 2021 research, development, test and evaluation funds.

Sparks, Nevada-based SNC also supports the command’s Dismounted Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device Electronic Warfare systems under a five-year, $205 million contract awarded in September 2017.
