The five-year deal, which includes a one-year base period followed by four one-year options, tasks the Reston-based firm with providing intelligence analysis, threat mitigation, and specialized training. Leidos personnel will work alongside military staff at headquarters, subordinate Numbered Air Forces, and various wings to process mission-critical data. Jason McCarthy, senior vice president for Airborne & Mission Solutions, stated the work focuses on delivering the speed and clarity required to navigate increasingly complex global threat environments. This contract aligns with the company's NorthStar 2030 initiative, designed to maintain combat-ready forces through rapid digital and mission-focused innovation. By maintaining a presence at dozens of sites both domestically and overseas, the company remains a primary support pillar for the Air Combat Command, which oversees the service's combat air, space, and cyber capabilities from its base at Langley-Eustis.
