Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Pacific has awarded a $42 million firm-fixed-price contract to Granite-Obayashi in California for the construction of a standoff weapons complex at Andersen Air Force Base.
"The new standoff weapons complex will provide an undeniable capability for the 36th Wing and the vested interests of the Air Force in the Indo-Pacific theater,” said Col Michal D. Holliday, Air Force Installation and Mission Support, Center Detachment 2 commander.
The work to be performed provides for construction of an adequately sized and configured missile maintenance and assembly complex for loading, unloading, transferring, storing, testing and preparing missiles for operational use, a news release stated.
