On November 13, 2024, the Army awarded Dynetics, Inc. an Undefinitized Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity letter contract for Indirect Fire Protection Capability Inc 2 Low-Rate Initial Production, Full Rate Production, and Support Services. The contract valued at $4.1 billion will initially procure 18 IFPC Inc 2 launchers. The total not-to-exceed dollar value of the undefinitized contract order is $204 million, of which $99 million was obligated immediately upon IDIQ contract award.
By leveraging an IDIQ contract, the Army is taking advantage of streamlined procurement processes, and increased flexibility, ultimately enhancing its ability to support the warfighter.
Maj. Gen. Frank Lozano, Program Executive Officer Missile and Space, reiterated the Army’s continued support of our warfighters and allies, stating, “With this contract award, the U.S. Army advances its commitment to defending U.S. interests and by bringing us one step closer to fulfilling our mission of providing robust and layered defense against ballistic missile attacks.”
The IFPC Inc 2 capability is in high demand as it is designed to protect fixed and semi-fixed sites from unmanned aerial systems, cruise missiles, and rockets, artillery, and mortars. The capability provides a critical layer of defense for forward operating bases and other critical infrastructure. In conjunction with other Program Executive Office Missiles and Space efforts, the IFPC Inc 2 capability is designed to integrate with other Army defense systems using the Army’s Integrated Battle Command System which provides a single, integrated air and missile defense fire control system that integrates multiple sensors and shooters, enabling a more effective and efficient defense against a wide range of threats.
The contract award is led by PEO MS and executed in partnership with Army Contracting Command-Redstone Arsenal.
