Northrop could win up to $85B for GBSD next-gen ICBMs, targeting an earlier fielding via accelerated contracting
Northrop is positioned to receive an approximately $85 billion award for the U.S. Air Force’s Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD) program earlier than expected, contingent on continued access to secure facilities. The timing would compress the path to next‑generation ICBM production and deployment.
