Description

The Navy is seeking a sole‑source contract to produce the Low‑Rate Initial Production (LRIP) of the Joint Multiple Effects Warhead System (JMEWS) for the Tomahawk Block Vb missile. Raytheon (RTX) in Tucson, AZ, is the only source capable of delivering the warhead suite, leveraging its existing design, manufacturing data, and production facilities. The effort transitions the JMEWS program from engineering and development into full production, supporting continued missile capability for the U.S. fleet. • Scope includes manufacturing, testing, and delivery of warhead systems for Tomahawk Block Vb missiles. • Work will be performed at RTX’s Tucson facility (85756‑9367) with oversight from Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR). • The solicitation is a sole‑source award; competitors may submit capability statements but no formal competition will be held.

Budget estimate

$10,000,000 – $50,000,000

No contract value is disclosed, but LRIP contracts for missile warhead systems typically range from tens to low hundreds of millions of dollars, depending on quantity and complexity. Given the specialized nature of the JMEWS and the need for rapid production, a reasonable estimate would be $10 million to $50 million for this award. Factors influencing the range include the number of warheads produced, any required testing and qualification, and the integration support needed for the Tomahawk Block Vb missile.
