By GlobalDataUnder this contract, Pratt & Whitney will provide vital engine sustainment support for the F117 engine, serving Australia, Canada, India, Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom. The scope of work will encompass multiple locations, including San Francisco, California; Columbus, Georgia; and Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma.
The F117 engine powers various military aircraft, including the C-17 Globemaster III. With a proven track record, Pratt & Whitney is well-positioned to provide sustainment solutions to ensure these critical assets’ continued operational readiness and efficiency.

As the primary contracting activity, the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma will oversee and manage the execution of the contract.
Pratt & Whitney delivered their final F117 engine for the US Air Force’s C-17 Globemaster III strategic military transport aircraft in 2016.
