United Technologies Corp. won a $1.28 billion contract from the U.S. Air Force for combat rescue helicopters that will replace an aging fleet.
The agreement with the company’s Sikorsky division has an estimated value of as much as $7.9 billion if all options are exercised, the Pentagon said yesterday. It will probably include about 112 new choppers.
