Northrop Grumman Corp. on Thursday said its board approved the repurchase of up to an additional $2 billion in stock.

The Falls Church, Va., aerospace-and-defense giant said the increase brings its total buyback authorization to $4.2 billion.

Northrop, which has about 158.5 million shares outstanding and sports a market capitalization of nearly $64 billion, said it spent $3.7 billion on share repurchases last year.
