The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a multiple-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract titled the Advanced Aerospace Systems Technology Research (AASTR) program to RTX Corporation's Pratt & Whitney division. The $400 million AASTR IDIQ aims to develop, demonstrate, and transition new aerospace vehicle technologies, designs, and integrated systems to provide advanced capabilities applicable across current and emerging Air Force aerospace platforms.
Under the AASTR IDIQ, Pratt & Whitney was awarded a $101,898 delivery order to provide innovative technologies that enable complexity, unpredictability, and mass to overwhelm adversaries. Pratt & Whitney, a leading manufacturer of aircraft engines and propulsion systems, will perform the work at its facility in Hartford, Connecticut. The delivery order has a period of performance through February 2024 and utilizes a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure. As a highly experienced prime contractor for the Department of Defense, Pratt & Whitney's participation in the AASTR program demonstrates its capabilities in advanced aerospace research and development to support the Air Force's technology modernization priorities.
