Huntington Ingalls said one of its divisions has been awarded a $528.4 million contract to support the U.S. Navy’s maintenance of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers in San Diego, Calif.
The defense provider said Monday the contract awarded to its Newport News Shipbuilding division has a potential value of $528.4 million over five years if all options are exercised.
