DRS Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: DRS) announced today that it has received an initial order of $36.4 million on a five-year contract with a projected minimum value of approximately $101 million to produce critical subassemblies for the Long Range Advanced Scout Surveillance System (LRAS3) program. The contract was awarded to DRS by the Network Centric Systems business of the Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN), McKinney, Texas, the prime contractor and final integrator for the LRAS3 program.
