Talon-planeBoeing (NYSE: BA) has been awarded a potential 10-year, $855 million contract to integrate avionic systems and provide logistics support for the U.S. Air Force‘s fleet of T-38C Talon trainer jets.

The Defense Department said Monday work is scheduled to occur through Jan. 3, 2026.

Boeing will perform work at a company facility in St. Louis, as well as at military air bases and naval stations in Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma and Maryland.
