HII secures global air and space operations contract

On January 28, HII announced that its Mission Technologies division was awarded a task order valued at approximately $296 million to support U.S. Air Forces in Europe-Air Forces in Africa’s (USAFE-AFAFRICA) air and space operations around the globe.

Under the five-year Consolidated Mission Support task order, awarded by the Air Force Installation Contracting Center’s 764 Enterprise Sourcing Squadron, HII will provide technical and analytical services to assist USAFE-AFAFRICA in the planning, integration and execution of command and control; integrated air and missile defense; and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR). The task order is a follow-on to work that HII does under the Persistent Multi-Role Operations (PMRO) contract with added scope.

“Through our continued partnership with USAFE-AFAFRICA, our team looks forward to applying our diverse skills and multi-national operations expertise to enhance the U.S. defense security posture in Europe and Africa and support the U.S. Department of Defense’s Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control strategy,” said Todd Gentry, president of Mission Technologies’ All Domain Operations group.

USAFE-AFAFRICA, headquartered at Ramstein Air Base in Germany, executes Air Force, United States European Command and United States Africa Command missions with forward-based airpower and infrastructure to conduct and enable theater and global operations. HII designs, develops, integrates and manages the sensors, systems and other assets to support ISR operations and accelerated decision making for the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), the combatant commands and the intelligence community.
