NEW YORK (BNS): US Army has awarded a Life-Cycle Contractor Support (LCCS) for its C-12, RC-12 and UC-35 aircraft to Systems Field Support (SFS) division of L-3 Communications.

SFS has received the five-year contract for $440 million.

Under the contract, SFS will provide total aircraft system maintenance, repair, modification, service, logistical support and management processes for the worldwide fleet of approximately 190 aircraft.

“L-3 SFS is pleased to be selected by the US Army to provide turnkey LCCS for this critically important Army aviation program,” Ed Gloviak, president of L-3 Systems Field Support, said.
