Gulfstream Aerospace has been awarded a $91.9 million contract to produce one G-550 Green aircraft with modifications for airborne early warning function for the U.S. Navy.
The Defense Department said Friday Gulfstream will manufacture the aircraft in Savannah, Georgia, with a completion date of December 2018.
The G550 cockpit features a triple-redundant flight management system for flight data command, a head-up display, an enhanced vision system that uses infrared imaging technology and a synthetic vision-primary flight display.
Gulfstream Aerospace, a subsidiary of General Dynamics (NYSE: GD), equipped the aircraft with two Rolls-Royce engines.
