Raytheon logo_EbizRaytheon has been awarded a 27-month, $15.5 million contract to develop an open architecture for the U.S. Navy’s P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft.

The company will produce application-based systems for airborne commercial-off-the-shelf computing, services-oriented architecture and infrastructure, and software-based mission applications, Raytheon said Feb. 17.

“The goal is to use readily available technology to quickly upgrade the P-8A’s warfighting capability,” said Jerry Powlen, Raytheon space and airborne systems’ vice president of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems.

Raytheon will design the systems to help mission commanders deploy new technologies through third-party software applications.

The company’s open system architecture team comprising Northrop Grumman’s information systems, L-3 Communications ComCept, General Dynamics’ advanced information systems and Rite Solutions will perform work in McKinney, Texas, through March 2017.

Raytheon will also perform the engineering and manufacturing development phase scheduled in 2017 under the contract.
