The FAA has selected RTX and Indra to replace 612 outdated radar systems in the U.S. by 2028 as part of a major air traffic control modernization effort. The current radar, dating back to the 1980s, is costly to maintain and has led to operational disruptions. The FAA has committed over $6 billion of the $12.5 billion funding approved by Congress for this overhaul, with an additional $20 billion potentially needed. The new systems aim to enhance air traffic surveillance and replace 14 legacy platforms nationwide.
