The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) awarded a multiple-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract valued at $151 billion to EWA Warrior Services LLC and other qualifying contractors under the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) Master IDIQ vehicle. The award was made on December 29, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of December 28, 2035, representing a 10-year period of performance. This full and open competition contract includes no set-aside designations and was structured to support national defense objectives by procuring an advanced, multi-domain defense system capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all phases of flight, including ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missile defense capabilities. EWA Warrior Services LLC, a veteran-owned limited liability company and subsidiary of Electronic Warfare Associates, Inc., was selected as one of multiple prime contractors based on its demonstrated expertise in electronic warfare, test and evaluation support, and defense-related capabilities.

The SHIELD contract encompasses a comprehensive range of products and services including research and development, prototyping, disruptive technologies, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity modernization, and supporting infrastructure. Individual task and delivery orders will be issued across multiple North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes utilizing various contract types, with work potentially classified at multiple security levels requiring appropriate facility clearances. The contract vehicle is designed to leverage advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures to establish a flexible contracting mechanism enabling the MDA and other Department of Defense entities to rapidly issue orders for both classified and unclassified programs. Performance will support the continuous, layered protection architecture required to defend the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends against evolving multi-domain threats.
