Lockheed wins $140 mln order for two Iraqi planes

WASHINGTON | Tue Aug 11, 2009 6:10pm EDT

WASHINGTON Aug 11 (Reuters) - Lockheed Martin Corp (LMT.N) has won a contract valued at $140 million to provide two additional four-engine C-130J transport planes to the Iraqi government, the Pentagon said on Tuesday.

It said the U.S. Air Force contract also included non-recurring engineering and integration tasks associated with the new configuration of C-130J planes being built specifically for the Iraqi government.

The U.S. Air Force in April already added up to $293 million to an earlier Lockheed contract for four of the workhorse C-130J military transport planes. (Reporting by Andrea Shalal-Esa. Editing by Robert MacMillan)
