JF Taylor contracted to support USN training
JF Taylor has been awarded $109.4 million to develop simulation systems and software to support training for the US Navy’s Integrated Battlespace Simulation and Test Department.
The department is based at the Naval Air Warfare Center at Patuxent River in Maryland, and work will be performed here as well as Lexington Park, also in the state.
No funds were awarded at the time as financing will be allocated as individual orders are made, and work is expected to be completed in November 2024.
The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division is the contracting activity for the award.
