The U.S. Army‘s program executive office for simulation, training and instrumentation has awarded Cubic’s defense systems business segment a contract potentially worth more than $200 million to upgrade the Instrumentable Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System Individual Weapons System.
An initial order of $19 million covers the base year of the award, which includes with four option years.
The company said the weapon is the Army’s latest-generation tactical engagement simulation system. It uses laser emitters mounted on weapons and on-body sensors to realistically replicate combat and record what happened for later review.
