Israel is one of several foreign customers included in a US Air Force not-to-exceed $3.5 billion contract awarded to Raytheon for Lots 39-40 of the Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM), along with telemetry kits, spare parts, and production support.
The deal, handled by the Air Force Life-Cycle Management Center’s Air Dominance Division at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, immediately commits $621 million in Foreign Military Sales (FMS) funds. Work is scheduled to run through the third quarter of fiscal 2031.
AMRAAM is the standard beyond-visual-range air-to-air weapon for many US and allied fighter fleets. The Defense Department did not detail how the new lots would be apportioned across customers.
In a separate FMS-funded action, Conti Federal Services won a $65 million firm-fixed-price contract (W912ER-25-C-0007) for construction work in Israel. The US Army Corps of Engineers’ Middle East District will oversee the project, which is to be completed by 17 July 2028. The Pentagon did not specify the location or scope. (Read More)
