Aerospace giant Boeing has been awarded a $104 million delivery order by the U.S. Navy for the repair of advanced cockpit display systems used in F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet and EA-18G Growler aircraft.
According to a Department of War contract announcement, the order (N00383-26-F-0YY0) falls under a previously awarded basic ordering agreement (N00383-22-G-YY01). The deal covers repairs for the large area display and low-profile head-up display—two key components of the jets’ advanced cockpit systems.
Work will be carried out in Fort Worth, Texas (70%), Talladega, Alabama (20%), and St. Louis, Missouri (10%), with an expected completion date of April 2028.
The contract is funded by fiscal 2024 procurement (Air Force), fiscal 2025 aircraft procurement (Navy), and fiscal 2026 working capital (Navy) funds. A total of $53.2 million will be obligated at the time of award as an undefinitized contract action. The funds will not expire at the end of the current fiscal year.
Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support, based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is the contracting authority.
The delivery order was issued as a sole-source requirement. The Navy stated that only one company was solicited and one offer was received. The justification was issued under the authority of 10 U.S. Code 3204 (a)(1), which allows for non-competitive procurement when only one responsible source is capable of fulfilling the requirement.
The advanced cockpit system in both aircraft platforms enhances situational awareness and mission effectiveness. Boeing’s repair scope includes critical elements of that system, ensuring sustained operational readiness of the fleet.
The F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and the EA-18G Growler—both manufactured by Boeing—serve as the U.S. Navy’s frontline strike fighter and airborne electronic attack aircraft, respectively.
