Boeing has secured a two-year, $24.6 million modification to a previously awarded delivery order to perform additional engineering work on the U.S. Navy‘s P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft.
The Defense Department said Thursday Boeing will support systems engineering technical and critical design reviews for P-8A’s Increment 3 Block 2 upgrades under the modification.
Work will occur in Seattle, Washington and Greenlawn, New York through July 2019.
Boeing designed the P-8A aircraft to support anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare; intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions; and maritime and littoral operations.
