Raytheon awarded $75 million for DDG 1000 program

USS ZumwaltRaytheon Company has been awarded $75 million to complete remaining hardware and electronics for DDG 1000 and 1001, the first two ships of the Zumwalt-class of multimission destroyers.

The award reflects exercised options under a previously awarded U.S. Navy contract. Raytheon's progress on the program continues, remaining on-cost and schedule, meeting all program milestones and shipyard need dates.

Under this contract, Raytheon will complete outstanding hardware and electronics production and assembly for the first two ships of the class, including electronics for the multi-function towed array for the sonar suite; canister electronics and uptake kits for the MK 57 Vertical Launching System; and the advanced procurement of Electronic Modular Enclosure shelters for the third ship, DDG 1002.
