Boeing awarded up to $552.1 million contract modification for MQ-25A Stingray aircraft by the U.S. Navy

Boeing has been granted a potential $552.1 million undefinitized contract modification from the U.S. Navy for its MQ-25A Stingray unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The agreement includes funding for three Lot One aircraft and long-lead components for three additional Lot Two aircraft, with an initial commitment of $164.4 million by the Navy. The contract modification is part of a broader effort to expand the MQ-25A program, which aims to provide carrier-based aerial refueling capabilities for U.S. naval operations. The funding includes $100 million from fiscal year 2025 appropriations, signaling continued government support and long-term planning. This development reinforces Boeing's position in defense aviation contracts while also highlighting the Navy’s ongoing investment in unmanned systems to modernize its fleet.
