Naval Air Systems Command Awards Follow-On Contractor Logistics Support & Engineering Services Contract Valued at up to $19.1M to Kratos Defense for the BQM-177A Subsonic Aerial Target System

Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: KTOS), a technology company in the defense, national security and global markets, and industry-leading provider of high-performance, jet-powered unmanned aerial systems, announced today that Kratos was awarded $3,399,506 from the U.S. Navy for the base year of its next Contractor Logistics Support and Engineering Services contract supporting BQM-177A aerial target system operations.

Steve Fendley, President of Kratos Unmanned Systems Division, said, “Often underestimated, logistics represents the behind-the-scenes enabler to system readiness. This contract illustrates the Navy’s commitment to readiness, and we’re equally committed to delivering readiness of the BQM-177A system and the critical capability it provides to the Navy for missions throughout each year.”

If all four option years awarded under this contract are exercised, this contract has a potential value of $19,118,645 with work conducted primarily in Kratos facilities in Sacramento and at Point Mugu, CA.
