About this award
Northrop Grumman Systems Corp was awarded a delivery order valued at $63.5 million on October 10, 2018, for the B-2 Radar Aided Targeting System (RATS) program. This ACAT III contract, executed under a Cost Plus Incentive pricing structure, supports continued modernization and sustainment of the B-2 Spirit stealth bomber fleet. The work is being performed at Northrop Grumman's Aeronautical Systems facility in Palmdale, California, with an ultimate completion date of November 30, 2023. The award is not designated as a set-aside contract, reflecting the company's competitive standing as a large prime contractor. The contract is funded by the Air Force Materiel Command through its Aeronautical Systems Center, which manages B-2 fleet modernization and sustainment initiatives.
The delivery order engages major subcontractors including The Boeing Company and GE Aviation Systems LLC to provide engineering services and major systems/subsystems support. Boeing's contributions, awarded in December 2018 and January 2020, support engineering and technical services, while GE Aviation Systems LLC provides specialized aviation components and major subsystems expertise for the radar-aided targeting capability. These subcontractors bring complementary capabilities to enhance the B-2's targeting systems and overall platform effectiveness. This work aligns with the Air Force's broader commitment to maintaining the technological superiority and operational readiness of its strategic B-2 bomber fleet through continuous system modernization and advanced radar-based targeting capabilities.
