RESTON, Va., Dec. 16 (UPI) -- Raytheon said Friday it won a $25 million contract from the Department of Health and Human Services to support non-proliferation in the former Soviet Union.
Through the five-year contract, the defense contractor will provide technical support to the department's biotechnology engagement program.
