About this opportunity

Naval Facilities Engineering Command awarded contract N4008526C0016 to Walsh Federal LLC for $658.3 million on July 15, 2026, for construction of the F-35 Aircraft Sustainment Center and Composite Repair Facility at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, NC.

The F-35 Sustainment Center comprises a 255,461 SF depot-level hangar designed to support 20 F-35 aircraft, including four paint booths, administrative space, aircraft part modification and tool shops, and a secure area built to ICD705 standards. The structure features precast structural concrete panels with a pile-supported foundation, slab on grade, and cross-laminated timber roof deck; the facility is single-story with two-story administrative space. Site development includes utility improvements to support Hancock Village, a taxiway with bridge, and aircraft parking apron.

The Composite Repair Facility totals 105,755 SF and consolidates depot-level advanced composites and rotor blade repair operations. The facility includes a composite repair and manufacturing shop with disassembly, parts kitting, production control, clean and dirty rooms, bonding room, and rotor blade repair shop with sanding pit and bonding room. Shared spaces for painting, parts wash, freezer, hygiene, bathrooms, and breakrooms minimize construction costs and improve sustainability. The award followed unrestricted competition with Walsh Federal and ECC Atlantic Construction pre-qualified for Segment II.
