Boeing: $13.4 B Announced, $3,472,113,801.18 Obligated So Far
A $13.4 billion ceiling modification on FA8609-19-D-0007. Orders on that PIID report $3,472,113,801.18 obligated as of October 6, 2026.
Intro
What did the September 11 Boeing modification announce, and what has USAspending reported on that PIID?
The headline number is an announced ceiling of $13,400,000,000, the September 11, 2026 modification to FA8609-19-D-0007. DefDex serving data is as of 2026-10-06. Orders on that PIID report $3,472,113,801.18 obligated. The vehicle row reports $0 obligated. The ceiling is not spending, and it is not added to the reported obligations.
Key takeaways
- The modification's announced ceiling is $13,400,000,000. The same sentence says the cumulative ceiling goes to $19,100,000,000 from $5,700,000,000. Those figures are not added together.
- The announcement says no funds are being obligated at time of award. That is not the reported total.
- Reported obligations are $3,472,113,801.18 on 30 orders, plus $0 on the IDV row, as of 2026-10-06.
- Serving potential value is $19,100,000,000, equal to the announced cumulative ceiling and different from the $13.4 billion modification. A P00008 action in the file is dated 2022-06-02, not 2026-09-11.
The Announcement
On September 11, 2026, the Department of War contracts list said: "The Boeing Co., Seattle, Washington, has been awarded a $13,400,000,000 ceiling modification (P00008) to a previously awarded contract (FA8609-19-D-0007) for the addition of Foreign Military Sales (FMS) scope of work." "The modification brings the total contract ceiling to $19,100,000,000 from $5,700,000,000." "No funds are being obligated at time of award." The contracting activity is the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. The modification ceiling and the cumulative ceiling are separate announced ceilings and are not added. The no-funds sentence is obligated at award, not the reported total.
Obligated So Far
The matched award is CONT_IDV_FA860919D0007_9700. The IDV row reports $0.00 obligated, 19 actions, from 2019-04-29 to 2026-05-05. Thirty orders with parent_piid FA860919D0007 report $3,472,113,801.18 obligated, 209 actions, from 2019-04-29 to 2026-07-02. That order total is the reported obligation. It is not added to the ceiling.
potential_value_usd is $19,100,000,000, equal to the cumulative announced ceiling and different from the $13.4 billion modification. current_value_usd is null. A live USAspending read on 2026-10-24 showed the same $0 obligation and $19,100,000,000 base and all options.
An action numbered P00008 is dated 2022-06-02, with $0 obligated. The latest vehicle action is P00019 on 2026-05-05. No action is dated 2026-09-11. The 2022 row is not treated as the September modification.
Buying Office
Vehicle and orders use office FA8609, named "FA8609 AFLCMC WLCK KC46" in DefDex. The announcement names the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. Recipient UEI WZWRLY4G3PL8 is on the vehicle and on every order.
What to Watch
Whether an action dated on or after September 11, 2026 posts. The announcement obligated no funds at award. The reported dollars are earlier orders.
Reporting Lag
DoD contract actions appear about 90 days late, so "obligated so far" means "reported so far." A September 11 modification can be missing from a file dated October 6.

Serving generation 20261023T015323Z, source data as of 2026-10-06, loaded 2026-10-23 00:06 Pacific, public build 89 at 2026-10-23 21:16 Pacific: 4,057,578 promoted awards and 12,424,350 actions, DoD, DHS, DOE, and NASA, FY2008–FY2027, including negative and zero actions. Every IDV is promoted. A definitive contract is promoted at $100,000 of gross positive obligations. The newest action date, including agency 097, is 2026-10-02, and that is not a complete file through that day. Flood insurance (CFDA 97.022), DHS disaster assistance, and non-research assistance are separate lines and are not in this award. This IDV is in the baseline and was promoted because it is an IDV, not by the $100,000 filter. This note states no requested amount and no enacted amount. The dollars it does state are an announced ceiling or an obligation, and those two are not added.
