Pentagon Awards $5 Billion Contract To Accelerate Navy ShipbuildingSubscribe to our free newsletter today to keep up with the latest manufacturing industry news.
The Pentagon’s push to reinforce the US Navy’s shipbuilding capacity has taken a major step forward with the recent $5 billion Maritime Acquisition Advancement Contract. Awarded through the Defense Logistics Agency Maritime Mechanicsburg, the agreement is intended to accelerate ship part manufacturing and modernize procurement for an array of Navy vessels. As the Navy grapples with aging shipyards and supply chain delays, this contract signals a renewed effort to maintain maritime superiority.
The Maritime Acquisition Advancement Contract (MAAC) is structured as an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity agreement with five annual options, each valued at $1 billion. If fully exercised, the contract could reach a ceiling of $10 billion over five years. By streamlining administrative processes and consolidating procurement for critical components, the MAAC is designed to trim long lead times that have historically slowed delivery of essential equipment.
Elizabeth Allen, deputy director at DLA Maritime Mechanicsburg, emphasized that the new contracting vehicle will significantly cut administrative delays that have challenged Navy shipbuilding timelines for years. The contract covers components for Virginia-class nuclear-powered submarines, surface combatants and emerging unmanned systems.
A standout aspect of the contract is its emphasis on engaging small businesses to strengthen the Navy’s supply chain. Six companies, SupplyCore, Atlantic Diving Supply, Culmen International, ASRC Federal, Fairwinds Technologies, and S&K Aerospace, will supply a diverse range of components for the Navy’s expanding fleet.
SupplyCore, for example, will help provide parts spanning carriers, cruisers, destroyers and unmanned vessels. According to Peter Provenzano, the company’s president and CEO, the award underscores SupplyCore’s ongoing commitment to sustaining operational readiness across the service’s complex mix of vessel types.
The Navy has faced repeated setbacks in meeting its goal of delivering two Virginia-class submarines each year, with delays tied to workforce shortages and supply chain disruptions. The MAAC is part of a broader push to tackle these constraints by leveraging more flexible contracting and expanded supplier networks.
In tandem with the contract, the Navy continues to experiment with technologies such as Augmented Reality Maintenance Systems to ease troubleshooting at sea. It is also deploying 3-D printing capabilities to fabricate essential ship components more rapidly. Combined with a request for nearly $1 billion in drydock modernization in its fiscal 2026 budget, these initiatives reflect the Navy’s effort to modernize aging infrastructure and sustain fleet readiness.
Speeding up the delivery of key ship parts will play a vital role in bolstering the Navy’s combat capability at a time when maritime competition is intensifying. By tapping into the flexibility of small businesses and modern procurement practices, the MAAC aims to shore up production rates for Virginia-class submarines and keep pace with operational demands.
Beyond immediate production needs, the contract reflects the Pentagon’s commitment to reshaping how it manages complex supply chains and strengthening critical defense manufacturing capacity in the US.

Mumbai Airport Raises $750M Through Bond For ModernizationThe private company managing Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) has lined up $1 billion in financing that it plans to invest in modernizing the airport.
BOM is India’s second busiest gateway, handling 54.8 million passengers in 2024—a 6.3% increase year-on-year. The modernization plan will include the redevelopment of Terminal 1, with work expected to start later this year.
The phased project will overhaul the terminal to serve domestic operations, with provisions for future international integration. Once complete, Terminal 1 will boost its annual passenger handling capacity by 42% to 20 million. Planned infrastructure upgrades include installation of a district cooling system, electrical substations, and a new baggage handling system. A multi-modal transport hub is also in development, providing direct links to metro and bus stations.
Adani Airports Holdings said the money has been secured through “India’s first investment grade rated private bond issuance in the airport infrastructure sector.” Adani Airports has initially raised $750 million through the issuance of notes maturing in July 2029. The financing structure enables raising an additional $250 million in the future, according to the company.
“This framework will provide enhanced financial flexibility for the capital expenditure program of [BOM] for development, modernization and capacity enhancement,” Adani Airports said.
A “syndicate of leading institutional investors and insurance companies” participated, the company noted, including Apollo Global Management, BlackRock and Standard Chartered.
The willingness of the investors to buy bonds points to “global confidence in India’s Infrastructure opportunity and Adani Airports’ operating platform,” the company said. “Backed by [BOM’s] stable asset base and cash flows and operational excellence, the notes are expected to be rated BBB-/stable.”
Adani Airports CEO Arun Bansal said the success of the bond issuance reflects the “robust fundamentals of Mumbai International Airport and our commitment to sustainable infrastructure development,” adding the company aims to “deepen our access to global pools of capital.”
The Airports Economic Regulatory Authority of India recently changed the passenger user fee structure at BOM, increasing fees on international travelers, another means of providing more money to the airport.
Construction of the new Terminal 1 is expected to be completed by 2028 or 2029, with the existing structure slated for demolition during the initial phase. Terminal 2 and the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMI) will handle displaced capacity during the redevelopment.
Adani Airports Holdings is also spearheading the development of NMI, which is targeted to begin commercial operations in the third quarter of 2025. The $2 billion project broke ground in August 2021. While an exact opening date has not been confirmed, a NOTAM issued in May by the Airports Authority of India indicated operations will not commence before Aug. 6.

Updated Sasc Reconciliation Bill Directs $1 Billion To X-37BLawmakers want to give the U.S. Space Force $1 billion to support the X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle program under the proposed budget reconciliation bill, congressional documents show.
The Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) on June 25 released updated legislative language of the defense portion of the reconciliation bill, hailing the collaboration with its House counterpart and with the White House and Defense Department.
The proposed $1 billion plus-up for the X-37B program is part of a pot of money dedicated to the “Enhancement of Department of Defense Resources to Improve United States Indo-Pacific Command,” with a five-year authorization period, according to legislation text shared by SASC Chairman Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.).
The U.S. Space Force maintains two Boeing-built unmanned, reusable X-37B spacecraft, while the Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO) manages the program. Queries to SASC, the U.S. Space Force and the Air Force RCO regarding the funding increase were not answered by press time June 25. A Boeing spokesperson referred queries to the U.S. Space Force.
The X-37B completed its seventh mission March 7 after more than 434 days in orbit. During that mission, the spaceplane was launched for the first time on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket and debuted operations in a highly elliptical orbit, before conducting a novel aerobreaking maneuver to shift into low Earth orbit.
With Mission 7 complete, the X-37B has spent more than 4,208 days on orbit since it was first launched on April 22, 2010. The Space Force is using the system as an on-orbit testbed and data collector in order to evaluate new technologies, to better understand similar adversarial platforms and to design new training environments, Chief of Space Operations Gen. Chance Saltzman told Aviation Week in January.

Clean Energy Jobs Surge As Us Manufacturing Hits $18 Billion GdpSubscribe to our free newsletter today to keep up to date with the latest manufacturing news.
The clean energy manufacturing industry in the United States is no longer a niche segment. It has become a central pillar of the national economy. As of 2025, the sector supports approximately 122,000 jobs and contributes $18 billion to the US gross domestic product. This momentum has been fueled by federal incentives, state-level clean energy mandates, and a global push for sustainable technologies. Yet, amid this growth, looming policy shifts threaten to slow progress and destabilize a key component of the country’s industrial future.
Clean energy manufacturing has emerged as a significant economic force. According to data from the American Clean Power Association, the sector is projected to reach $86 billion in GDP contribution and support 579,000 jobs by 2030. That represents a fivefold increase in jobs and more than quadruples the current GDP contribution.
Solar manufacturing leads this growth. The segment includes more than 90 facilities and employs over 75,000 workers. It generates $5.9 billion in earnings and contributes $11.5 billion to the economy. The average salary in clean energy manufacturing exceeds the national average by $42,000, offering high-quality jobs that support middle-class households.
Federal legislation has been pivotal to the sector’s expansion. The Inflation Reduction Act, passed in 2022, provided robust incentives for domestic manufacturing, which helped drive capital investment and accelerate project development. Since then, dozens of new manufacturing plants have been announced or have begun operations, particularly in solar panel and battery production.
However, recent regulatory uncertainty has created a chilling effect on further investments. Tariff adjustments, supply chain reviews, and a lack of clarity on long-term policy commitments have led to delays and cancellations of planned facilities. Industry leaders caution that without consistent support, the US risks losing its foothold in clean energy manufacturing to international competitors.
States such as Ohio, Georgia, and Texas have become hubs for clean energy manufacturing due to available workforce, tax incentives, and robust transportation infrastructure. In Dalton, Georgia, the expansion of a major solar panel facility has added over 1,000 jobs and attracted secondary suppliers, giving new life to the local economy.
In Ohio, a battery manufacturing plant has partnered with local colleges to develop training programs that prepare students for high-tech manufacturing roles. These examples show how regional cooperation and investment can drive both economic growth and workforce readiness.
Looking ahead, the clean energy manufacturing sector holds enormous potential. Projections suggest nearly 600,000 jobs and an $86 billion GDP contribution by 2030. With global competition intensifying, the US faces a pivotal moment. Through coordinated action and long-term planning, clean energy manufacturing can anchor the next phase of American industrial leadership.
