CPI Aero Receives $10.2 Million of Purchase Orders from U.S. Air Force for T-38 Aircraft Modification Kits

- Increases Funded Orders under Previously Awarded Multi-year Contract to $61.1 million –

EDGEWOOD, N.Y., Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (“CPI Aero®” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: CVU) announced that it has received multiple purchase orders totaling $10.2 million under a previously announced Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract from the U.S. Air Force valued at up to $65.7 million to provide structural modification kits, program management, logistics, and other sustainment services in support of Phase 3 of the T-38C Pacer Classic III Fuselage Structural Modification Kit Integration program (“PCIII”) and the Talon Repair Inspection and Maintenance (“TRIM”) program. The new purchase orders bring the total funded value of the contract to $61.1 million and support additional kit deliveries within the currently funded period of performance into 2028.

The Northrop T-38 Talon is a two-seat, twinjet supersonic aircraft and has been the principal supersonic jet trainer used by the U.S. Air Force for more than 60 years. Over 1,200 were produced and just under 500 are still being flown by the U.S. Air Force and NASA. The PCIII and TRIM programs give the aircraft a structural makeover that extends the service life of the aircraft beyond 2030.

“CPI is in our seventh year providing critical Kitting and Supply Chain Management services to the U.S. Air Force in support of the T-38 and its critical pilot training mission. We are proud to be an integral part of the T-38 program and to continue delivering on our commitment to the Warfighter,” commented Dorith Hakim, president and chief executive officer of CPI Aero.
