<h1>US Department of War raises Raytheon AMRAAM contract over $2.51B; Pakistan listed among potential FMS recipients</h1> A US Department of War contract modification increases a Raytheon AIM-120 AMRAAM production contract to over USD 2.51 billion and lists Pakistan among numerous foreign military sales recipients; work is slated for completion by May 2030. The modification, valued at an additional USD 41.6 million, covers C8 and D3 variants. It is unclear how many missiles, if any, will be delivered to Pakistan, though receipt could enable upgrades to the Pakistan Air Force's F-16 fleet given existing AMRAAM-F-16 compatibility. The development occurs amid improved bilateral ties after recent military hostilities and competing claims about how a ceasefire was arranged.
