Feb. 23 (UPI) -- Raytheon received a $45.5 million contract modification for the delivery of Silent Knight Radar systems to the U.S. Special Operations Command.
The modification supports low-rate initial production in addition to full-rate production for the radar systems. The modification is a follow-up to an agreement inked with Raytheon in December 2006, which tasked the company with building, testing and integrating the new Silent Knight radar into a variety of special forces aircraft.
