Lockheed Martin Corp. in Orlando, FL received a $35.8 million firm-fixed-price contract for night sensor assembly parts for the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter. The release did not reveal whether the sensors were part of the Apache’s regular suite, or part of the new Arrowhead system being retrofitted to American and British AH-64s.

Work will be performed in Orlando, FL (78%) and Oswego, NY (22%), and is expected to be complete by April 30, 2008. This was a sole source contract initiated on May 26, 2004 by the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command in Redstone Arsenal, AL (DAAH23-03-G-0009).
