US-based BAE Systems Technology Solutions and Services is providing more engineering support for the Special Communications Mission Solutions Division in the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) facility at Webster Outlying Field, under a $154.11 million IDIQ contract announced by the DoD on 19 October.
