Boeing Locks in 7-Year Deal to Triple PAC-3 MSE Seeker Output
The seven-year framework is expected to create hundreds of jobs in Huntsville as Boeing expands seeker manufacturing for Patriot interceptors.
- On Monday, October 5, 2026, Boeing received an undefinitized contract action worth approximately $14.7 billion from Lockheed Martin to triple production of seekers for the PAC-3 Missile Segment Enhancement.
- This award formalizes a seven-year framework agreement, addressing a historical manufacturing choke point for the Patriot air defense system's seeker production.
- Boeing began ramping up production and hiring in Huntsville, Alabama, earlier this year, with the undefinitized contract action enabling work to proceed despite the absence of an approved fiscal 2027 budget.
- Amid conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East draining interceptor stockpiles, Boeing CEO Steve Parker committed to delivering "seekers at unprecedented levels in the near-term."
- The production increase supports the Pentagon's Acquisition Transformation Strategy and strengthens the nation's Arsenal of Freedom, while Boeing develops an Ultra Low-Cost Seeker for future military service.
