[Satellite TODAY 06-27-11] TeleCommunication Systems (TCS) has received $12.8 million in funding from the U.S. Army for equipment and field services to support of Secret IP Router and Non-secure IP Router Access Point (SNAP) VSAT satellite systems, TCS announced June 23.
TCS said it would use the funding to ensure equipment and support for TCS’ reliable SwiftLink deployable communications products. These awards are the result of exercised options on five existing delivery orders issued by the U.S. Army. The procurement of equipment is through funding from the U.S. Army Project Manager for the Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (PM WIN-T) commercial satellite terminal program.
“Ongoing military efforts throughout the world demand secure deployable communications systems. Field-proven reliable systems and support are what the brave men and women of our armed force deserve as they carry out their missions. TCS considers it a great honor to have been entrusted to deliver what our warfighters need – whether in terms of tactical satellite systems or in-theatre support – as they complete their mission,” TCS Senior Vice President Michael Bristol said in a statement.
