This $99.8 million firm-fixed-price delivery order was awarded by the Naval Air Warfare Center to Lockheed Martin Corporation's Rotary and Mission Systems division for the development and production of a CH-53K Crew and Familiarization Tactical Trainer (CFTD). The contract does not have a set-aside designation. The CH-53K is a heavy-lift helicopter used by the U.S. Marine Corps. This award will provide Lockheed Martin funding to deliver training devices and cybersecurity upgrades to support the aircraft's development and sustainment. Major subcontractors include By Light Professional IT Services LLC, which will provide systems engineering, software development, and other technical services for the training devices. This contract is likely part of larger Department of Defense efforts to field the CH-53K and ensure pilots and crews receive high-quality training on the new platform. Lockheed Martin, as a leading defense contractor, has a broad portfolio of aircraft programs and technical services contracts across the military branches.
