"The U.S. Army recognizes the importance of investing in Patriot sustainment, especially given the instability in the world today."

Under this contract, the system analysis, software development, testing and logistics support, and other country-specific system requirements work will be performed by Raytheon in Andover, Mass.; Tewksbury, Mass.; Huntsville, Ala.; and White Sands, N.M.
