    "excerpt": "A rocket is fired from a Lockheed Martin Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system. Solid rocket motors for the system are produced by L3Harris in East Camden. L3Harris Technologies has received an undefinitized contract from Lockheed Martin, valued at more than $6 billion (excluding escalations) over seven years, to significantly expand propulsion production for the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system. An “undefinitized contract” is a contract under which the government and contractor begin performance before final contract terms, specifications, or price are agreed upon. L3Harris' Missiles Solutions division manufactures the solid rocket motors for the THAAS system in East Camden. The contract follows a framework agreement L3Harris and the Department of Defense announced earlier this year to quadruple THAAD propulsion production. This award, along with the recently released PAC-3 MSE propulsion contract, is consistent with the company’s previously announced expectations for both programs. “This contract underscores L3Harris’ demonstrated ability to quickly deliver critical defense technologies at the scale and speed required by the Department of War,” said Ken Bedingfield, President, Missile Solutions, L3Harris. “Our planned facility expansions, along with ongoing investments across our propulsion portfolio, will ensure we remain ready to support the...",
