RTX's Collins Aerospace awarded Cooperative Engagement Capability Design Agent contract from U.S. Navy
Collins Aerospace, an RTX business, has secured a follow-on contract worth up to $904 million over five years from the U.S. Navy to continue developing the Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC) system. The CEC integrates sensors across surface, land, and air platforms to enable Integrated Fire Controls.
RTX has been the sole provider of CEC since 1985, and this new sole source contract follows an existing five-year Design Agent contract. The system connects multiple platforms and associated sensors, providing composite tracking to combat and weapons systems. Collins will enhance the system with increased interoperability, expanded weapon and sensor coordination, and integration of new data sources.
The company has already successfully deployed and maintained CEC on more than 174 U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps and international platforms.
Collins Aerospace, un'azienda di RTX, ha ottenuto un contratto di follow-on del valore di 904 milioni di dollari per un periodo di cinque anni dalla Marina degli Stati Uniti per continuare lo sviluppo del sistema Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC). Il CEC integra sensori su piattaforme marittime, terrestri e aeree per abilitare i Controlli di Fuoco Integrati.
RTX è stato il fornitore esclusivo del CEC dal 1985, e questo nuovo contratto esclusivo segue un contratto di Design Agent esistente di cinque anni. Il sistema collega più piattaforme e sensori associati, fornendo tracciamento composito ai sistemi di combattimento e d'arma. Collins migliorerà il sistema con una maggiore interoperabilità, espansione del coordinamento di armi e sensori e integrazione di nuove fonti di dati.
L'azienda ha già implementato e mantenuto con successo il CEC su più di 174 piattaforme della Marina degli Stati Uniti, del Corpo dei Marines degli Stati Uniti e internazionali.

Insights
This
The contract's financial implications extend beyond the headline value. With CEC deployed across 174 platforms spanning U.S. Navy, Marine Corps and international installations, this creates a robust recurring revenue stream through maintenance and upgrades. The five-year duration provides excellent revenue visibility and operational stability.
Three key strategic elements make this particularly valuable:
- The contract includes flexibility for future task orders, potentially expanding the total contract value beyond the stated amount
- International platform integration suggests growing opportunities for foreign military sales
- The system's critical role in Distributed Maritime Operations positions RTX advantageously for future naval modernization initiatives
The continued development of interoperability capabilities and sensor integration aligns perfectly with the military's push toward multi-domain operations, suggesting strong potential for system expansion and additional contract opportunities in adjacent areas. This reinforces RTX's position as an indispensable partner in naval defense technology, with significant barriers to entry for potential competitors.
