The company will aim to extend the operational service life of the service branch’s F/A-18E/F fleet from 6,000 to 9,000 flight hours, the Defense Department said Wednesday.

Seventy-five percent of the work will occur in St. Louis, Missouri, and the remaining 25 percent in El Segundo, California.

The Navy will obligate $67.5 million in fiscal 2018 aircraft procurement funds at the time of award.

Boeing is scheduled to complete work under the sole-source contract in April 2020.
