The Navy has awarded aircraft repair companies AAR Government Services and Standard Aero each over $1.2 billion to provide depot-level engine maintenance, repair, overhaul and field assessment and repair for the P-8A Poseidon aircraft, according to a Thursday contract announcement.
The Poseidon aircraft these contracts support belong to the Navy, Royal Australian Air Force and foreign military sales customers, the notice states. Additionally, no funds will be obligated at the beginning of the award, but when individual orders are issued.
