The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is working to overhaul the country's air traffic control system in an effort to reduce outages and improve efficiency. To revamp the old system, the agency put down an initial $12.5 billion and awarded a contract to technology firm Peraton, according to the FAA. The project is ultimately expected to cost an additional $20 billion with the administration's goal to fully implement the new system by the end of 2028.
