Boeing Won’t Contest Loss in LRSO Contracts

By Staff Reports

Defense Daily

Boeing will not challenge contracts the Air Force awarded to Lockheed Martin and Raytheon to mature designs for the Long-Range Standoff Weapon (LRSO), a replacement for the aging, nuclear-armed, air-launched cruise missile.

“We received the customer debrief and after reviewing the information, Boeing has decided not to protest the Air Force’s decision” on LRSO, Boeing spokeswoman Didi VanNierop said. “We believe we provided a strong proposal that leveraged Boeing’s advanced cruise missile expertise on other successful programs.”
