About this program
The HAWK Improved program is a Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) managed by the U.S. Department of Defense following the Major Capability Acquisition pathway. The program centers on the Homing All the Way Killer (HAWK) missile system, which includes missiles, launchers, radar systems, command and control components, and associated support equipment. Based on the contract history spanning from 1999 to 2024, this appears to be a sustained acquisition effort to maintain and upgrade existing HAWK systems, with significant foreign military sales components supporting allies including Egypt, Jordan, Singapore, Spain, and the United Arab Emirates.
Contract awards under this program typically range from small purchase orders of $12,000 to major definitive contracts exceeding $35 million, with performance periods spanning from several months to multiple years. Primary contractors include Raytheon Company for system engineering and sustainment, Eaglepicher Technologies LLC for specialized batteries and power components, and Communications & Power Industries for electron tubes. The majority of awards are issued by the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) without set-aside designations, though some smaller support contracts utilize 8(a) sole-source set-asides. Key procured items include electron tubes, klystron tubes, rocket motors, power generation units, and specialized batteries, along with engineering services, logistics support, and technical assistance. Notable places of performance include Huntsville, Alabama; Joplin, Missouri; and various contractor facilities. Many contracts support the Fair Share Sustainment Operations (FSSO) program, which appears to be a cooperative support arrangement for participating HAWK system operators.
