Boeing Wins $41.5M in Defense Contracts with US Department of War

American aerospace giant Boeing has secured two significant defense contracts worth a combined $41.5 million, according to an announcement by the U.S. Department of War.

The company received an $11.8 million modification to an existing contract for support services related to Kuwait's F/A-18E/F Super Hornet aircraft. This six-month extension will cover logistics, management, and maintenance support before the aircraft are transported to Kuwait.

The services included in this contract include general logistics, aircraft pilot and maintenance support, aircraft and equipment logistics, engine support, and ferry support, including packaging, handling, storage, and transportation.

This work will take place primarily in New Orleans, Louisiana (70%), with some work also taking place in Jacksonville, Florida (30%). The contract is expected to be completed by March 2027 and will be funded through Foreign Military Sales customer funds.

In a separate development, Boeing's Bell Boeing Joint Project Office has received a $29.7 million order for loads and dynamics model data covering all V-22 variants. This technical data will support future sustainment decisions, mishap investigations, transition to post-production sustainment, and Fleet Support Team repair and maintenance of V-22 aircraft.

This work will be performed in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania (60%), Fort Worth, Texas (30%), and Amarillo, Texas (10%). The order is expected to be completed by March 2030 and will be funded using fiscal 2025 procurement funds totaling $10.3 million and fiscal 2026 procurement funds of $19.4 million.
