Boeing, Lockheed to compete again
The Air Force formally renewed a competition between Boeing Co. and Lockheed Martin Corp. for a military satellite system valued at as much as $11 billion after the service changed the program’s specifications to reduce costs.
The Air Force issued a revised request Dec. 23 for proposals on a modified Transformational Communications Satellite program. TSAT will consist of five satellites and ground stations providing message and data routing for Army units.
Boeing’s El Segundo-based Satellite Systems Inc. and Lockheed’s Sunnyvale, Calif., Space Systems are competing on the TSAT program.
