- lern_too_spel 3mo ago25% (many) of the contracts awarded in this notice are cost plus. https://www.war.gov/News/Contracts/Contract/Article/4314128/contracts-for-sep-24-2025/ https://www.war.gov/News/Contracts/Contract/Article/4314128/... Contracts are announced daily during the week. https://www.war.gov/news/contracts/ https://www.war.gov/news/contracts/ I provided the Wikipedia link to explain this contract structure because most people working outside defense have never heard of it. I didn't hear of it myself until talking to someone awarding defense research contracts, where these kinds of contracts are the norm. The Tomahawk missile contracts are not cost-plus, as you have said.
