The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (DHS CBP) awarded a $47.1 million firm fixed price delivery order contract to Sierra Nevada Corporation for the procurement of two Multirole Enforcement Aircraft (MEA). Key subcontractors include Rockwell Collins, Inc., L3 Technologies, Inc., and Leonardo UK LTD, which will provide avionics, communications equipment, and a Seasprey radar system respectively. The aircraft will be modified and outfitted at Sierra Nevada's facility in Sparks, Nevada over a two year period ending in September 2022. As the primary federal law enforcement agency securing U.S. borders, this contract supports DHS CBP's ongoing efforts to modernize its airborne assets used in border security operations.
