About this award
The Boeing Company's Defense division was awarded a $11.0 million firm fixed-price delivery order by the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) on January 22, 2019, for F/A-18 retrofit design and development related to satellite communications capabilities. The work, performed in St. Louis, Missouri, was scheduled for completion by June 30, 2023, with no set-aside designation applied to this award. The contract involves updating technical documentation to incorporate Foreign Military Sales case numbers and MILSTRIP identifiers for specific line items, indicating international defense cooperation elements within the retrofit program.
Boeing's performance on this delivery order was supported by a subcontracting team including Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation for major structures (awarded April 2022) and outside production components (awarded September 2023), as well as Harlow Aerostructures, LLC, a HUBZone-certified small business manufacturer of aerospace structural components (awarded January 2024). Systems Service Enterprises, Inc., a compliance and consulting firm, provided non-production services as a subcontractor (awarded May 2025). This modernization effort aligns with NAVAIR's broader mission to sustain and enhance the F/A-18 Super Hornet fleet through advanced technology integration, with the retrofit work contributing to the aircraft's expanded operational capabilities in modern communication systems.
