Leidos selected X-Bow Systems to develop and produce booster motors for the U.S. Army's Low-Cost Containerized Munition (LCCM) program. Under the agreement, X-Bow Systems will move through design, qualification testing, and static fires before beginning full-rate production in 2027. This contract is part of a larger effort to rebuild the domestic solid rocket motor industrial base.
