BAE Systems has received a $149.8 million firm-fixed-price contract from the U.S. Navy for the maintenance and modernisation of the USS Boxer (LHD 4). The value of the contract could reach $180 million if all options are exercised.
This Selected Restricted Availability (SRA) contract includes critical modernisation, maintenance and repair that will be performed at Naval Base San Diego.
“Critical maintenance of the USS Boxer will support the U.S. Navy’s vital mission to continue defending our nation,” said Eric Icke, vice president and general manager of BAE Systems Maritime Solutions San Diego. “I look forward to our highly skilled team delivering unmatched capacity, precision, and performance for our customer.”
