A separate $165 million agreement focuses on reactor system components and manufacturing specifically for Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers. Production is slated to take place at company sites in Barberton, Ohio, and Mount Vernon, Indiana.

Over a period of 70 years, the firm highlighted it has supplied more than 420 nuclear reactor cores to the naval programme. Within the last six months, the company transported four Ford-class steam generators from its Indiana facility to shipyards in Hampton Roads, Virginia.

These generators were delivered for the USS Doris Miller, the newest aircraft carrier in the Ford-class series.
