2017-05-15
Tele Communication Systems (TCS) has been awarded a new order with a ceiling value of $60.8 million to provide Tactical SHF Satellite Terminals (TSST) to the U.S. Army, the company announced July 14.
The order is initially funded at $53.1 million and will be funded up to a total of $60.8 million if the options are fully exercised, TCS said. This award was made under the Army’s $5 billion World-Wide Satellite Systems (WWSS) contract vehicle in support of the Program Manager for the Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (PM WIN-T). The terminals are scheduled for delivery in the second and third quarters of 2012.
“Today's warfighter often depends upon secure, rugged and rapidly deployable systems to achieve their missions. To ensure mission continuity, TCS will offer the SwiftLink family of deployable communications solutions and complete end-to-end managed services for converged (IP-based) voice, video and data solutions to organizations requiring seamless, highly secure connectivity between fixed sites and remote operations,” TCS Senior Vice President and General Manager Michael Bristol said in a statement.
