The Pentagon has announced that the U.S. Department of the Army has ordered 25 more overhaul engines for military helicopters with the work to be done at Neosho’s Premier Turbines plant.
The Department of the Army delivery order is for 50 engines at a cost of more than $8.26 million with half of the contract work done at the Neosho plant and the remaining work to be performed in Oakland, California. The contract is for analysis, testing, repair and overhaul of T63-A-720 gas turbine engines used in the Army observation helicopter, the Kiowa.
“We are delighted to receive this additional work,” commented Alton Johnson, general manager of Premier Turbines. “Our team at Neosho is dedicated to quality and this new work from a satisfied customer serves to acknowledge that we perform as promised. We are pleased to support the U.S. Army’s efforts in defense of our country and we are poised to support additional delivery orders as they are needed.”
