The US Air force has awarded a $417.7 million worth contract to InDyne Inc. for services in support of the Solid State Phased Array Radar System, the Department of Defense announced Monday.

The agreement is to provide operation and maintenance services for the Air Force's Solid State Phased Array Radar System. The complex system provides continuous coverage and monitoring of potential missile threats, including space.

InDyne will provide for "all non-personal services, administrative, financial, and managerial resources necessary on a continuous 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week basis to support the five Solid State Phased Array Radar System installations and sites," the release states.

Work on the contract will occur at Beale Air Force Base, Calif., Cape Cod Air Force Station, Mass., Clear AFS, Alaska, Royal Air Force Fylingdales, United Kingdom, and Thule Air Base, Greenland, the Pentagon said in a press release.

Work on the contract is expected to be complete by April 2026, it added.
