Raytheon officials say the company has a new contract to produce ground segments for the RQ-4A/B Global Hawk unmanned aerial systems program. The agreement, which includes launch and recovery and mission control elements and associated ground communication systems, covers segments for Lot 4 of the Global Hawk’s low-rate initial rate production. Officials did not disclose the amount of the award.
The nominee to become the next head of U.S. Strategic Command, Vice Adm. Richard Correll, endorsed the production of more than 100 B-21 bombers, echoing his predecessor Gen. Anthony Cotton's view.
