The task order, issued under the warfighter modelling, simulation, analysis and integration support (WMSA&IS) contract, requires the Leidos team to provide support services to better synchronise multi-discipline ISR, targeting, and computing technologies with air, space and cyberspace force operations.
Leidos group president Larry Hill said, "Leidos is privileged to continue our air combat command relationship focused on strengthening air force targeting and ISR infrastructures, and providing operational unit commanders with relevant, accurate, and timely support across the spectrum of military operations."

Awarded along with L-3 Communications, the contracts covered development of critical technologies for modelling and simulation of space and missile defence systems.
