Lockheed Martin Wins FAA Oceanic Air Control Contract

Lockheed Martin has won a new $200 million FAA contract for an air traffic control system. Under the contract agreement, Lockheed Martin will upgrade the Oceanic Air Traffic Control System currently in operation in Oakland, California, and within two years will implement similar enhancements to the Oceanic Systems in New York, and Anchorage, Alaska.

Further enhancements and maintenance could increase the value of the contract over the entire life cycle of the 10-year program. Lockheed Martin is planning to export similar systems to other countries operating oceanic monitoring systems, such as the UK and Russia.
