Cobham yesterday said it was awarded an approximately $23.8 million to supply NATO forces with leading-edge vehicle mounted Improvised Explosive Device (IED) detection equipment.
These systems will be delivered in 2013 by Cobham Antenna Systems in the United Kingdom.
Fred Cahill, vice president, Cobham Antenna Systems, said: “Cobham will deliver enhanced Counter-IED detection capabilities, which can be safely deployed from within the protection of mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicles. These advanced systems are designed for the most demanding military requirements and complements existing technology which Cobham provides to protect lives and livelihoods.”
