BAE Systems Awarded $41 Million Contract to Purchase Parts for Bradley Reset
YORK, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BAE Systems was awarded a $41 million contract modification to finalize the procurement of situational awareness items required for the reset of 101 Bradley Operation Desert Storm Situational Awareness (ODS SA) vehicles.
“The procurement of these situational awareness parts will provide our soldiers with a modernized vehicle that will help to protect them and aid in performing successful missions”
“The procurement of these situational awareness parts will provide our soldiers with a modernized vehicle that will help to protect them and aid in performing successful missions,” said Joe McCarthy, vice president and general manager of the Heavy Brigade Combat Team Systems for BAE Systems.
Under this contract, BAE Systems will continue to purchase 101 kits of long-lead items and additional parts in preparation for the reset of Bradley ODS SA vehicles.
