Larson | L000557 | larson.house.gov | larson | https://larson.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | Hartford, CT - Today, Connecticut’s congressional delegation announced a $234 million contract from U.S. Army to procure 16 UH-60M Black hawks: “Sikorsky is a global leader in defense, building the finest helicopters here in Connecticut. This $234 million contract will support good-paying jobs in Connecticut, provide a boost to our local economy, and strengthen our national security. We will always fight for funding and contracts to support the thousands of skilled employees and the local manufacturing industry here in Connecticut who serve as the backbone to Sikorsky’s success,” said the delegation. The initial agreement covers 16 aircraft for the U.S. Army and is expected to increase by over 100 aircraft in the coming years. The agreement sustains production at Sikorsky and its 230‑supplier, 43‑state industrial base without interruption. | 1 | 2026-09-22T09:42:49Z | 2026-09-22T09:44:35Z |
