About this award
Kilgore Flares Company LLC, a pyrotechnic manufacturer based in Toone, Tennessee, was awarded a $9.79 billion delivery order by the Naval Air Systems Command on August 30, 2022, for MJU-61 Infrared Countermeasure Flares with a completion date of March 20, 2024. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price delivery order with no small business set-aside designation. This award falls under Kilgore Flares' $225 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with Naval Air Systems Command, which provides the framework for procuring MJU-61 and MJU-61A/B infrared countermeasure flares—critical aircraft survivability systems designed to defend military aircraft against heat-seeking missile threats. All performance is conducted at the contractor's manufacturing facility in Toone, Tennessee.
As a key supplier to the Department of Defense, Kilgore Flares maintains substantial contract vehicles across multiple military branches, including significant indefinite delivery contracts with the Air Force Materiel Command, Army Program Executive Office Ammunition, and Naval Air Systems Command with combined ceiling values exceeding $710 billion. The company's infrared countermeasure flare products support naval aviation, Air Force, and Army platforms and are essential to military operational readiness, testing, and training programs. No major subcontractors are identified for this specific delivery order, though the company maintains a subcontract relationship with Leidos, Inc., for related defense applications.
