Stratford’s Sikorsky Aircraft Corp. won a four-year, $120 million contract to supply maintenance, parts and other services for the Australia military’s fleet of Black Hawk helicopters, authorities say.
Sikorsky Australia Ltd. and Australian Defence Force (ADF) renewed an earlier eight-year pact that expired, officials said Thursday.
The latest contract for S-70A and S-70B copters has six annual renewable options.
The ADF fleet is primarily engaged in search and rescue missions on the continent and its waters.
