Northrop Grumman has landed a $19.7M contract from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to explore for hypersonic boost-glide technologies.
DARPA awarded the contract via a sole-source acquisition process and obligated nearly $18M at the time of award from its fiscal 2019 and 2020 R&D funds, the Department of Defense said Friday.
The company will perform work in Baltimore, Md., and is expected to complete the project by March 2023.
