The Boeing Co., Seattle, Wash., is being awarded a $136,598,000 modification to a previously awarded advance acquisition contract (N00019-09-C-0022) to procure long-lead materials in support of P-8A low-rate initial production II aircraft.

The P-8A Poseidon is a long-range anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft.

(8.3 percent); and McKinney, Texas (5.3 percent), and is expected to be completed in December 2013. Contract funds will not expire at the end of the current fiscal year.
