About this award
Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation's Aeronautics Systems Division was awarded a $340.5 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract by the Naval Air Systems Command on March 10, 2021, for sustaining engineering and support of the MQ-4C Triton Unmanned Aircraft System, with performance extending through March 27, 2025. The Triton is a high-altitude, long-endurance unmanned aircraft designed for maritime patrol, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions operated by the U.S. Navy. This non-set-aside contract encompasses sustainment engineering, system improvements, and associated support activities for the aircraft and its ground control systems, with work performed in San Diego, California. The contract represents a critical component of the larger MQ-4C Triton Major Defense Acquisition Program managed through the Major Capability Acquisition pathway under Defense Acquisition Program Number 373.
The contract leverages a substantial subcontractor ecosystem to support Triton operations and sustainment. Key subcontractors include L3Harris Technologies (communication systems and integrated aerospace systems), Raytheon Company (major systems and subsystems), Wind River Systems (embedded software and qualified support), Corporate Computer Centers (computer hardware and software), Glenair (electrical cable and connector assemblies), and numerous specialized suppliers including CDW Government for IT solutions, Keysight Technologies for test and measurement equipment, and Sierra Nevada Company for technical services. Additional subcontractors provide human resources services, 3D printing and manufacturing, and flight training support. This diverse supply chain reflects the complex, multifaceted nature of sustaining an advanced unmanned aircraft system and its associated mission control infrastructure across the fleet.
