“Lockheed Martin was awarded a $1.04 billion modification contract for incidental services, hardware, facilities, equipment, and all technical, planning, management, manufacturing, and testing efforts to produce Phased Array Tracking Radar to Intercept on Target (PATRIOT) Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) missiles,” the Pentagon said in a release Wednesday.

The $1 billion modification means an additional order to the previously awarded $6 billion order in April for PAC-3 missiles.

Work is estimated to be completed by 31 October 2024.
