GROTON, CONNECTICUT (BNS): General Dynamics Electric Boat was recently awarded a $15.8 million contract modification by US Navy for continued engineering, technical services, concept studies and design in support of the Common Missile Compartment under development for the United Kingdom’s Successor ballistic-missile submarine and the US Ohio replacement submarine.

Electric Boat is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics.

According to a press statement by General Dynamics, the award modifies a $76 million contract announced in December 2008 for engineering, technical services, concept studies and design of a Common Missile Compartment for the next-generation ballistic missile submarines being developed for the Royal Navy and the US Navy.

If all options are exercised and funded, the overall contract would have a value of more than $651 million.

This work will engage Electric Boat’s engineering and design organisation.
