# Air Force Plans $1.057B Nellis F-47 Campus

The U.S. Air Force is targeting **February 5, 2027** for an other transaction agreement award supporting an F-47 testing site and future campus at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. The approximately **$1.057 billion** project request covers design, construction, contingency, security, and other costs—not construction alone—and may involve as many as four contractors. Project milestones extend through 2032; the available reports do not provide solicitation scope, qualification requirements, or bid instructions.

- Construction and defense firms can use Air Force Civil Engineer Center updates to find the forthcoming package scope, qualification criteria, and submission instructions; those details are not yet available in the reports.
- Because the project may be divided among multiple contractors and uses an other transaction agreement, prospective participants should assess their ability to support the project’s design, construction, security, or related work as solicitation details emerge.
- The February 5, 2027 target award is about 99 days away. The stated $1.057 billion is the total programmed request, so firms should not treat it as the construction-only budget.
