PAE Aviation and Technical Services to Test Air-to-Air Missiles of USAF F-15, F-16, F-22, F-35 Jets

PAE Aviation and Technical Services has won a $19 million modification contract to test air-to-air missiles of the United States Air Force’s (USAF’s) F-15, F-16, F-22 and F-35 jets.

“The company has been awarded a $19.15 million modification contract for the Aerial Targets Program,” the US Department of Defense said in a statement Monday.

The contract modification provides for the exercise of an option for an additional year of service under the multiple year contract, which directly supports live-fire weapons system testing and enables the 53rd Weapons Evaluation Group to perform developmental and operational weapons testing for all air-to-air missiles for the F-15, F-16, F-22, and F-35 aircraft, the statement read.

Work expected to be completed by September 30, 2020.
