Most of the project work will be performed in the company's California and Texas facilities, and is expected to be completed by April 2030, the agency added.

The company's subsidiary, DRS Sustainment Systems, also won a $45 million contract from the US Army to supply 20 Joint Assault Bridge systems and related spares. Project work will be performed in the company's Missouri facility and is expected to be completed by March 31, 2027, the Defense Department said.
