    "excerpt": "The U.S. Air Force has awarded Raytheon a contract worth up to $8 billion to modernize and restart production of the satellite communications terminals that link the president and military commanders to U.S. nuclear forces, the U.S. Department of War announced on Oct. 13. The indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract covers development work to modernize the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center’s strategic communications terminals, services to restart their production, and technical studies. Raytheon received the contract without competition and will do the work in Marlborough, Massachusetts, and Largo, Florida, through Oct. 12, 2036. The U.S. Air Force put only $800,000 of fiscal 2026 research and development money on the contract at award, with the rest to be ordered over the next decade as needed. The announcement did not say which terminals will be built or how many. The terminals are part of the U.S. nuclear command, control and communications network, known as NC3, which lets national leaders pass orders to bombers, missile crews and command posts under any conditions, including during a nuclear conflict. The Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center’s Strategic Communications Division at Hanscom Air Force Base, Massachusetts, which awarded the contract, buys and sustains that equipment. Raytheon’s main work for the division is the Family of Advanced Beyond Line-of-Sight...",
