Federal Contracting Inc. was awarded a $77.7 million firm fixed-price definitive contract by the U.S. Air Force's Global Strike Command for the complete construction of a B-21 Washrack and Maintenance Hangar facility at Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota. The contract, awarded on December 1, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of November 9, 2025, supports infrastructure development for the B-21 Raider bomber program.
