# Coast Guard Awards $49M Radar IDIQ

On September 23, 2026, the U.S. Coast Guard awarded Furuno USA a 10-year IDIQ contract, with a ceiling of **$49 million**, for solid-state X-band and S-band surface-search radar systems for cutters and shore facilities. The five-year base period includes five option years; the first delivery order covers prototyping and first-in-class installation work. The contract could support more than 700 radars across over 200 afloat platforms and 400 shore sites, but orders and spending depend on Coast Guard budgets and fleet needs.

- The IDIQ creates a potential long-term procurement channel for radar systems, components, and related support, but its ceiling does not guarantee a specific purchase volume.
- The initial prototyping and installation work may create opportunities for suppliers supporting integration, components, spares, and installation, subject to Coast Guard requirements.
- Contractors should account for the five-year base and option structure and the agency’s budget- and fleet-dependent ordering when assessing subcontracting or supply opportunities.
