About this award

The U.S. Marine Corps awarded a $16.26M delivery order to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (operating as Electronic Systems Company) on August 15, 2026, for the continued design and development of digital receiver/exciter component-level subsystems supporting the Ground/Air Task Oriented Radar (G/ATOR) program. This Phase II development effort will be performed in Linthicum Heights, Maryland, under a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract structure with an ultimate completion date of August 28, 2026. The award represents a continuation of Northrop Grumman's long-standing role as the primary contractor for G/ATOR, having secured over $1.5B in production contracts and numerous delivery orders for the Marine Corps' critical radar modernization initiative.

The G/ATOR program is a foundational acquisition for the Marine Corps' air defense and ground surveillance capabilities. This delivery order focuses on advancing the digital receiver/exciter technology at the component subsystem level, supporting the program's evolution toward enhanced operational performance. Northrop Grumman will leverage its established supply chain, which includes major subcontractors such as General Dynamics, Saab Inc., Telephonics, and SRC Inc., along with specialized suppliers in microwave components and electronic systems manufacturing. The contract was awarded competitively without small business set-aside designation, consistent with Northrop Grumman's status as a large prime contractor within the defense industrial base.
