Exelis to Provide Night Vision Goggles, Image Intensifier Tubes for Army

ITT Exelis (NYSE: XLS) has won a U.S. Army delivery order to provide image intensifier tubes and night vision goggles under the OMNI VIII contract.

The company said Monday the tubes will be used for AN/PVS-14 night vision monocular devices.

On Feb. 28, the Army requested an additional 500 MX-111769 tubes, adding to the original contract the company won early last month.

The Army’s Research, Development, Engineering Command Acquisition Center awarded the company an additional contract for 34 AN/PVS-7 and 14 AN/PVS-14 night vision goggles.

The company said the goggles will be sold to an international customer through a foreign military sale.

The global aerospace, defense and information solutions company recently won a $32 million contract from Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE: LMT) to build satellite navigation payloads.
