RTX’s Collins Aerospace awarded follow-on contract worth up to $904M

Collins Aerospace, an RTX (RTX) business, was awarded a follow-on contract with a potential for up to $904M over five years to continue development of the U.S. Navy’s Cooperative Engagement Capability, a system that integrates sensors across surface, land, and air platforms to enable Integrated Fire Controls. RTX has been the sole provider of the Cooperative Engagement Capability since 1985. The new sole source contract follows an existing five-year Design Agent contract. The CEC is a critical network for the U.S. Navy that connects multiple platforms and associated sensors together and provides composite tracking to combat and weapons systems. Collins will add new capabilities to the system including increased interoperability, expanded weapon and sensor coordination and integration of new data sources.
