Electric Boat Awarded $1.03-Billion Navy Order

For Four Attack Subs

General Dynamics Corporation's

Electric Boat division in Groton,

Conn., has been awarded a $1.03- billion Navy contract for the con- struction of four attack submarines of the Los Angeles Class, the total number that will be awarded in fis- cal 1986.

In the prior fiscal year, the con- tracts for attack subs were split between Electric Boat (1) and New- port News Shipbuilding (3). While the Navy will continue to seek com- petitive bids in the submarine pro- gram, Electric Boat's bid this year was so far below the next bidder it was decided to award all four attack subs to the single contractor.
