Leonardo DRS, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRS) announced today that it has
received an order for continued production of its advanced Sniper
Weapon Sights for U.S. Army snipers. The recently awarded
production order for $52 million was made under the current Family
of Weapon Sights–Sniper (FWS-S) IDIQ contract.
Incorporating DRS’s proven cooled infrared imaging technology,
FWS-S is a clip-on thermal weapon sight used in conjunction with
existing daytime sniper optics to provide rapid target acquisition
capabilities to the sniper during day and night. The sighting
system gives users the ability to acquire targets in a range of
difficult environmental conditions, including smoke or fog,
providing strategic and tactical advantages to the sniper.
“Ensuring soldiers have the most advanced technology on the
battlefield today is critical, and the Family of Weapon Sights -
Sniper answers that call,” said Jerry Hathaway, senior vice
president and general manager of DRS’s Electro-Optical Infrared
Systems business. “We are proud to provide this innovative
technology, and proud the U.S. Army recognizes us as a trusted
partner to continue delivering these systems to the frontline
warfighters.”
In addition to FWS-S, Leonardo DRS has an extensive installed
base of electro-optical and infrared technology across the U.S.
military. Advanced sensing capability is a key strategic focus for
the company providing world-leading sensing and laser technologies
for a range of aircraft protection and mounted and unmounted
sensors supporting the men and women of the U.S. armed forces.
