WASHINGTON — The U. S. Air Force has increased by $2 billion the value of a contract with Raytheon to produce and sustain terminals that connect aircraft, command posts and other platforms to the military's most secure satellite communications network.
The Strategic Communications Division of the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center announced March 13 that it raised the ceiling of an existing contract for Advanced Extremely High Frequency terminals by $2 billion over five years.
The Strategic Communications office manages acquisition and sustainment of communications systems used in the U. S. Nuclear command, control and communications enterprise, known as NC3.
