GE Aerospace has secured a $1.4 billion contract from the U.S. Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) for the production of T408 turboshaft engines, supporting Lots 9-13 for the U.S. Marine Corps’ CH-53K King Stallion heavy-lift helicopters. The agreement includes the delivery of new production and spare engines, as well as sustainment services, with final assembly taking place at GE Aerospace’s Lynn, Massachusetts facility.
