The War.gov notice lists multiple contract awards for Feb. 6, 2026; one publicly available item shows Northrop Grumman Systems Corp. receiving a $198,000,000 ceiling-priced delivery order (N00383‑26‑F‑S50R) for 608 power amplifier module spares for the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye. The full set of specific contracts and award amounts is in the War.gov posting (the complete daily list), which includes all awards $7.5 million and above.
The full contract listing and award documents are posted on the War.gov Contracts page for that date: https://www.war.gov/News/Contracts/Contract/Article/4399519/contracts-for-feb-6-2026/ (the site’s daily Contracts section also lists and links each award announced at 5 p.m. ET on business days).
War.gov (like Defense Department press offices) limits the daily summary to awards valued at $7.5 million or more because that is the publication threshold the department uses to highlight larger procurements in routine daily contract announcements; lower‑value awards are not included in the daily press summary but remain reportable through federal award databases (e.g., FPDS/SAM.gov).
The “Department of War” named in the notice appears to be the issuing agency’s press identity on War.gov; functionally this mirrors the U.S. Defense Department’s public contract announcements (Defense.gov). The Department of Defense is the federal executive department that manages U.S. military contracts; War.gov’s Contracts postings serve the same public‑notice role for that agency’s awards.
War.gov publishes these contract announcements each business day (daily on weekdays) at about 5 p.m. ET for awards $7.5 million and above; you can find prior daily postings in the site’s Contracts archive.
Yes. The daily War.gov contract postings typically include the winning contractors’ names, award amounts, contract or order numbers, and brief descriptions of the work and locations — though they are short summaries rather than full contract texts.
To obtain more information or underlying documents, request them through the agency’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) process (contact and FOIA instructions are on War.gov or the agency’s FOIA office page). Many contract records are also available via federal databases (FPDS or SAM.gov) and USAspending.gov; FOIA can be used for documents not published publicly.
