Textron‘s AAI Corp. subsidiary has received a potential $15.7 million contract to support the U.S. Air Force intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions in Afghanistan through the use of unmanned aircraft systems.
AAI will also provide a non-developmental contractor-owned and contractor-operated UAS ISR platform as well as support the service branch’s force protection efforts under the firm-fixed-price contract, the Defense Department said Friday.
The company will conduct work at the Bagram and Kandahar airfields in Afghanistan, with an expected Sept. 27 completion date.
The Air Combat Command Acquisition Management and Integration Center awarded the sole-source contract.
