The contract will pay for Phase II delivery of the verification simulation system's software, software fees, development, integration and support, the Defense Department announced on Tuesday.
Lockheed last year received a $50.8 million modification on the same contract for development, integration and support of the F-35-in-a-box, or VSim, system.
Lockheed will work under the terms of the new contract in Forth Worth, Texas, and Marietta, Ga., between now and September.
The Defense Department has obligated about $20.4 million to Lockheed at the time of the award, with funds coming from Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force accounts.
