The U.S. Air Force awarded Northrop Grumman $298M to support RQ-4B and MQ-4C drones.

The contract provides for repair services for “common items” for both the RQ-4B and MQ-4C Triton. It will support reparable National Stock Numbers (NSNs) which encompass the Air Vehicle, multiple sensor packages, Mission Control Element, and Launch and Recovery Element, a U.S. DoD released today said.
