The United States Special Operations Command has awarded Boeing a $19,4 million firm-fixed-price modification to an existing delivery order for the procurement of MH-47G in support of U.S. Special Operations Command, headquartered at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida.

The modification supports continued acquisition of special operations helicopters, with most work to be performed in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, through November 2030. The contract is aimed at the ongoing requirements to sustain and expand specialized aviation capabilities used by United States special operations forces.

The majority of manufacturing and integration activities will take place at Boeing’s rotorcraft facility in Ridley Park, their production site for military helicopters.

USSOCO operate the MH-47G to support a range of mission profiles, including infiltration of special operations teams, rapid extraction operations, logistical resupply, and humanitarian response missions when required.
