Kratos Defense receives $1.45B MACH-TB 2.0 contract award

Kratos Defense (KTOS) & Security Solutions announced that it has been awarded a five-year OTA contract for the Multi-Service Advanced Capability Hypersonic Test Bed 2.0 under Task Area 1. The total value of this award, if all options are exercised over the five-year period, is $1.45B. The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Test Resource Management Center established MACH-TB to support OUSD’s National Hypersonic Initiative 2.0 by creating an affordable flight test bed to rapidly increase hypersonic flight test capacity. MACH-TB 2.0 will provide an affordable bridge between hypersonic ground tests and system level flight tests. This will reduce overall hypersonic development risks and time and provide rapid transition of innovative hypersonic technologies to the warfighter.
