Huntsville-based Invariant and California’s Anduril Federal have been awarded a $400 million contract by the U.S. Marine Corps Systems Command to deliver a Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System Engagement System.

The contract covers hardware, software, and support services, with work to be conducted at both companies’ facilities in Huntsville, Alabama, and Costa Mesa, California.

The firm-fixed-price, cost-plus-fixed-fee, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract includes an initial order for First Article Test units and program management support.

The contract spans through October 2031, with a total potential value of $200 million per company over the base period and four additional ordering periods.

The award is funded by $15.46 million from fiscal 2024 Marine Corps research, development, test, and evaluation funds, which must be allocated by the end of the fiscal year.
