The U.S. Space Force awarded Northrop Grumman a $200.2 million contract on August 23 to build the second of three global sites for the next-generation Deep Space Advanced Radar Capability (DARC). The trilateral DARC program calls for the construction of a network of ground-based radars by the end of the year.
