The contract will form the second stage of the Phased Enhancement Programme for Typhoon. It was awarded under the Engineering Delivery Partner (EDP) framework agreement between the Aurora Engineering Partnership (including QinetiQ) and MoD Defence Equipment & Support, the company noted in a 4 January statement.
