Under the sole source award, Raytheon will provide continued support for the SPY-6 family of radars to the US Navy, including the government of Germany, with the potential for other countries to be added under the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program.
“With over a decade of demonstrated success at sea, SPY-6 remains the U.S. Navy’s most advanced maritime radar, providing the fleet with unmatched sensing power and multi-mission readiness to counter evolving threats,” said Barbara Borgonovi , president of Naval Power at Raytheon.
“Backed by an $800 million investment to modernize our radar manufacturing facilities, we’re accelerating production and are expecting to double SPY‑6 output by 2028.”
SPY-6 is now aboard two commissioned US Navy ships and is installed on 11 others, all of which are undergoing various stages of testing.
Over the next decade, SPY-6 is expected to be deployed on more than 50 US Navy ships, enhancing defense against air, surface, ballistic and electronic warfare threats.
