Raytheon Missile Systems has won a $201 million modification to a previously awarded contract for 241 Evolved SeaSparrow Missiles and 47 shipping containers for a consortium of NATO nations by August 2010, the Defense Department said Friday.
The Evolved SeaSparrow is used to protect ships from air and surface threats, including supersonic, maneuvering anti-ship missiles.
About 45 percent of the work will be performed in Tucson, with the rest done at other Raytheon facilities and in participating NATO nations. |
