The contract, spanning five years and issued by the Naval Air Systems Command’s Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Webster Outlying Field Special Communications Mission Solutions Division, mandates the company to render engineering and technical services for both newly developed and existing MDC5ISR systems and platforms.

Lisa Hand, who occupies the position of Vice President and General Manager at BAE Systems Integrated Defense Solutions, remarked: “As a premier systems integrator, our collective brings to the table a level of expertise that is unparalleled in the program,” She added, “For over three and a half decades, we have been at the forefront of delivering rapid, integrated C5ISR solutions for this program, and we take immense pride in our ongoing commitment to supporting the warfighters who are deployed across various parts of the world.”

This subsequent contract provides for the support of a diverse range of MDC5ISR products, which encompasses small craft, systems capable of being transported, systems for communication while en route, and systems within the platform, catering to the needs of the U.S. Navy, Special Operations Forces, Homeland Security, along with other agencies within the Department of Defense (DoD) and non-DoD entities.

The execution of the work under this contract is slated to occur in Lexington Park, Maryland; St. Inigoes, Maryland; and Little Creek, Virginia.
