(Reuters) -Wireless carrier T-Mobile said on Thursday it has been selected by the U.S. Navy to supply communication technology as part of a $2.67 billion Spiral 4 contract for the next ten years.

The contract comes at a time when telecom providers are grappling with a slow wireless market and stiff competition.
