The American military is famous for spending money. President Biden has requested a DOD budget of $715 billion for FY 2022. That is an increase of 1.6% over the $703.7 billion that was enacted for FY 2021. As a result, they have recently announced new contracts. Here are some of the highlights.

Australia and Spain account for the remanding 20%.

Lockheed Martin, Virginia : $80,240,289

This announcement stating the contract was for "Surface Ship Undersea Warfare Combat System and AN/SQS-53C transmitter infrastructure shipset hardware."The United States is purchasing 96% of this contract. Consequently, Australia is accounting for the remaining 6%.
