  • The Department of War signed two seven-year framework agreements with L3Harris & Lockheed Martin to expand production of PAC-3 MSE & THAAD components.
  • L3Harris will accelerate manufacturing of PAC-3 MSE two-pulse solid rocket motors, Attitude Control Motors, & Lethality Enhancers to counter ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, & enemy aircraft.
  • The THAAD agreement will scale production of solid rocket boost motors & the Liquid Divert & Attitude Control System (LDACS) for in-flight maneuverability against atmospheric & exo-atmospheric threats.
  • These deals follow previous PAC-3 MSE framework agreements with Lockheed Martin, Boeing, & Honeywell.
  • The agreements are a direct result of the Department's Acquisition Transformation Strategy, which aims to reduce bureaucracy & provide stable long-term demand to build a wartime-ready defense industrial base.
