EDGEWOOD, N.Y., June 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (CPI Aero®) (NYSE American: CVU) today announced that it has been awarded a $3.1 million purchase order under a previously announced contract from the U. S.

In July 2019, the Company announced the PCIII and TRIM contract valued at up to $65.7 million. This is the third time this year the Air Force has ordered these kits and year-to-date the Company has received firm orders totaling more than $16 million in orders.
