The Naval Air Systems Command, Patuxent River, Maryland, is the contracting activity (N00019-18-C-1060).

(EDITOR’S NOTE: On March 30, 2018, Boeing was awarded “an undefinitized contract action with a not-to-exceed value of $1,165,068,022 for long-lead non-recurring engineering required to develop a baseline configuration for the production and delivery of 22 F/A-18E and 6 F/A-18F Super Hornets in support of the government of Kuwait.
“In addition, this contract provides for long-lead radar warning receivers and aircraft armament equipment,” the Pentagon’s announcement continued.
Added to the $1.5 billion contract awarded yesterday, this brings to total cost of the 28 Super Hornets to $2.67 billion, or roughly $95.3 million par aircraft.
Note that this contract includes no weapons nor additional sensors.)
