SAIC Awarded New $75.2M PRISM Task Order to Advance the Naval Air Systems Command’s Mission-Critical Aviation Systems

SAIC has secured a $75.2 million task order under the PRISM contract to modernize and sustain critical aviation systems for the Naval Air Systems Command. The contract focuses on advancing the technology and infrastructure supporting Aircraft Armament Equipment (AAE), Support Equipment (SE), and Aerial Refueling System (ARS) integration specifically for the MQ-25 Stingray unmanned aerial refueling platform. The work builds upon SAIC's two-decade partnership with the U.S. Navy and represents a significant technology modernization effort for mission-critical naval aviation systems. The MQ-25 Stingray is the Navy's first operational carrier-based unmanned aircraft, designed to provide aerial refueling capabilities to extend the range of carrier-based aircraft. This contract will ensure the supporting systems and equipment remain technologically current and operationally effective.
