Textron Systems has received a
$231.5 million contract modification from the U.S. Department of War to construct two Ship to Shore Connector Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC-100) vessels. The fixed-price incentive modification expands on a contract originally awarded in 2023 and supports the U.S. Navy’s amphibious warfare capabilities.
The New Orleans-based defense contractor will perform approximately 62% of the work in New Orleans, Louisiana, while the remaining work will be distributed across nine additional locations. Major allocations include Camden, New Jersey (8%), Cincinnati, Ohio (6%), and Gloucester, United Kingdom (4%). Smaller portions will be carried out in Harahan, Louisiana; Hunt Valley, Maryland; Portsmouth, Virginia; Huntington Beach, California; and Chanhassen, Minnesota, with another 14% assigned to other unspecified locations.
