WASHINGTON, Sept. 7 (UPI) -- Raytheon has been awarded a $8.7 million U.S. Air Force primarily firm-fixed-price contract for work on F-16 Fighting Falcon center display units.
The deal calls for Raytheon to retrofit 130 F-16 center display units and support the organic depot maintenance stand-up.
Work will be performed in Indiana and is expected to be completed by September 2017.
The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center is the contracting activity.
The Fighting Falcon is a compact, multi-role fighter that is highly maneuverable and used in air-to-air combat and air-to-surface attack.
It provides a relatively low-cost, high-performance weapon system for the United States and its allies.
The first Fighting Falcon, a single-seat F-16A, was delivered to the service in 1979.
