Goodrich Corp. said Monday it received a contract potentially worth $20 million or more from Northrop Grumman Corp. to build weapons bay door systems for all models of its F-35 Lighting II aircraft.

Goodrich expects to begin delivering the systems in early 2009 and continue through the middle of 2011.

Goodrich is also providing the air data systems, landing gear, engine and fuel quantity sensors, actuation systems, short takeoff/vertical landing engines and airframe components for the aircraft.

The contract amount could change depending on market demand for the Northrop Grumman aircraft and the number of door systems that are ordered.
