Arcfield has been awarded a $117 million follow-on contract with a one-year base and two option years to provide systems engineering, digital analysis, and hardening assessments for the U.S. Navy’s Trident II D5LE strategic weapon system.
Arcfield, a government mission support provider, has received a follow-on contract valued at $117 million to continue supporting the U.S. Navy’s Trident II D5 Life Extension (D5LE) strategic weapon system, according to official disclosures.
The award includes a one-year base period of performance with two additional option years. Under the contract, Arcfield will deliver independent scientific analysis, digital engineering, and operational expertise, with a focus on hypersonic flight, advanced material testing, and radiation, aerothermal, and structural assessments.
This development matters because the Trident II D5LE is the sea-based leg of the U.S. nuclear deterrent, requiring continuous reliability and security validation. Arcfield will also conduct hardening and vulnerability assessments of strategic weapon systems, support refurbishment of submarine ballistic missiles to extend lifespan, and evaluate system performance under varied environmental conditions. The company’s heritage organizations have supported the Navy’s submarine-launched ballistic missile program for over 68 years, nearly its entire 70-year existence. Industries impacted include defense engineering, nuclear deterrence sustainment, and digital simulation. Stakeholders include U.S. Strategic Command, Navy submarine units, and prime contractors in the missile defense supply chain.
For investors, this long-term, sole-source follow-on contract demonstrates incumbency advantage in specialized national security programs, with work performed in Colorado, Washington D.C., New Mexico, Florida, and Nebraska.
Arcfield is a Virginia-based government services company providing systems engineering and mission support to defense and intelligence agencies.
