Boeing has received a $31.9 Million U.S. Air Force contract to provide logistics support for a C-17 aircraft training system operated under the NATO Airlift Management Programme.
The agreement supports the C-17 weapon system trainer associated with the NATO Airlift Management Programme, which provides multinational strategic airlift capabilities.
The contract includes firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement provisions and covers three years of customer logistics support.
Under the agreement, Boeing will support the training system used for C-17 operations at Pápa Air Base in Hungary.
The C-17 Globemaster III is a military transport aircraft designed to move personnel, equipment, and cargo over long distances.
Training systems associated with the aircraft help aircrews maintain proficiency in operating procedures and prepare for a range of transportation missions.
The latest contract focuses on logistics support for the C-17 weapon system trainer rather than the acquisition of additional aircraft.
The agreement has a maximum value of $31,911,362.
Work will be performed at Pápa Air Base and is expected to be completed by October 31, 2029.
The contract involves Foreign Military Sales to NATO.
At the time of award, the Air Force is obligating approximately $23.3 Million in Foreign Military Sales funding.
The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, serves as the contracting activity.
The contract is identified as FA8621-27-C-B002.
Boeing provides aircraft manufacturing, training, logistics, and sustainment capabilities to U.S. and international defense customers.
The company’s support of C-17 training infrastructure contributes to the operational readiness of organizations operating the aircraft.
The NATO Airlift Management Programme supports participating nations through shared strategic airlift capabilities.
The award establishes a three-year logistics support arrangement for the training infrastructure associated with those operations.
It also extends Boeing’s involvement in maintaining the training and support systems used by international C-17 operators.
