DSCA said Kuwait will use the radar field systems and related services to support national sovereignty protection efforts, build up security measures and perform situational awareness to help in the detection of rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft.
The FMS transaction also includes spares, training, support equipment, installation, site surveys, site acceptance testing, construction, and logistics support.
