ATK wins $204 million in munitions contracts
ATK will supply non-US standard ammunition (NSA) to the US Department of Defense in support of international allies. The awards, received in August and September 2014 under ATK's Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity and Basic Ordering Agreement contracts, are worth a combined $203.7 million.
The contract will see ATK supply supply a range of ammunition and munition products under the NSA programme, for which ATK has been a supplier since its inception.
Kent Holiday, vice president and general manager, small caliber systems, ATK, said: ‘We are honoured to support our army customer in every facet of ammunition requirements they may have, and these significant awards will continue ATK's legacy of commitment and performance to the US Army NSA programme.
Mike Kahn, president, ATK's Defense Group, added: ‘ATK's ability to satisfy varied munitions needs provides a strategic advantage to the United States as it supports its allies across the globe.’
