The United States Department of Defense announced on Wednesday that it made a new framework agreement with the Boeing Company and Lockheed Martin Corporation to triple the output of seekers for the Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) Missile Segment Enhancement (MSE) as part of US President Donald Trump and US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's plans to build the "Arsenal of Freedom."
The new deal will build on the US government's seven-year agreement with Boeing, which supplies the PAC-3 missiles, and it represents an application of the Pentagon's Acquisition Transformation Strategy.
"This agreement with Boeing is a direct reflection that speed, volume, and a resilient supply chain are paramount. We are moving beyond the old model and forging direct partnerships with critical suppliers to ensure the entire defense industrial base is postured to expand production and deliver the decisive capabilities our warfighters need at speed and scale," US Under Secretary of War for Acquisition and Sustainment Michael Duffey said.
