The Department of Defense said Friday Textron Systems secured a $394.3 million contract modification from the Navy for the boats’ construction.
Majority of contract work will be performed at the company’s New Orleans, Louisiana site, while the remaining 4 percent will be in Hunt Valley, Maryland, and other locations. The construction is expected to run through September 2030.
In the same DOD posting, Textron Systems was reported to receive another contract modification with a nearly similar amount for the same Ship to Shore craft construction work.
The Navy also awarded Textron Systems a $312.4 million contract modification in July for materials and recurring and non-recurring activities in support of the boats’ construction.
SSC, the next generation of LCAC, is an all-aluminum craft designed to transport up to 74 tons of cargo between ships and shore at a full speed of 35 knots. It offers enhanced performance, reliability and maintainability, while meeting the requirements of the Marine Corps requirements for increased payload and availability.
