CADILLAC, Michigan, AR (NYSE: AIR) Mobility Systems has been awarded task orders valued at $25.3 million from the U.S. Air Force for the production and repair of 463L cargo pallets. The cargo pallets will be manufactured and repaired in Cadillac. The two task orders are expected to be completed by June 30, 2019, and are tied to a previously awarded contract, which brings the total value to $143 million.

“Mobility Systems takes pride in being the sole manufacturer and authorized repair center for the 463L pallets for the U.S. Air Force. These two task orders ensure that the current inventory stays fully operational while also increasing inventory by up to 6,000 new pallets,” said Jeffery Jackson, Vice President, Business Development, AAR Mobility Systems.
