US Department of Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Administrator Bryan Bedford have announced that the FAA intends to replace the nation’s current radar system, enhancing safety and efficiency across US airspace.

New radar contracts have been awarded to RTX and Indra, with funding set to be provided by the US Government as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill.

The new contracts will contribute to the replacement of up to 612 radars by June 2028 with more modern, commercially available surveillance radars.
