MMA Phase II Development Funds Awarded
|
|
Naval Air Systems Command awarded Lockheed Martin a $20.5 million contract in February for Phase II of the Component Advanced Development portion of the Navys new Multimission Maritime Aircraft program. Last September, Lockheed Martin received a five-month $7 million contract for Phase I MMA CAD work. The CAD Phase II award is for fourteen months, with work to be finished next April. The Navy will then choose one of two competitors to advance to a four-year System Development and Demonstration phase.
The Lockheed Martin MMA solution is a modern weapon system consisting of three primary elements: an armed aircraft derived from the proven P-3 Orion; a state-of-the-art mission system that meets all current MMA mission requirements with ample growth capability; and an integrated support system that dramatically reduces operation and support costs.
