Leonardo DRS Delivers Critical C5I Capabilities for New Australian Army Combat Vehicles

Leonardo DRS, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRS) announced today that it has delivered, ahead of schedule, critical C5I capabilities for the Australian Army’s Heavy Armoured Capability Systems. The delivery provides the new vehicles with the latest situational awareness technology allowing the Australian Army to keep ahead of new and emerging threats in the region.

Through the U.S. Government Foreign Military Sales program, Leonardo DRS was selected to provide its next-generation ruggedized C5I Battle Management System (BMS) hardware for the new M1A2Sepv3 Main Battle Tanks; M1A2Sepv3 and M88A2 Recovery Vehicles; M1074 Joint Assault Bridge platforms, and M1150 Assault Breacher Vehicles.

The Leonardo DRS BMS technology delivered to the Australian Army is designed for the service’s unique requirements and is built around the same combat proven C5I hardware in use with the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.K.’s ground combat vehicles. It is also designed to easily integrate networked communications with United States and coalition partners.

Leonardo DRS is one of the largest world-wide suppliers of rugged platform computers and display systems and has been providing these advanced systems to the Australian Army for more than 20 years. In total, the company has delivered more than 200,000 systems internationally, built to survive harsh environments and rigorous military standards.

“We are very proud to support our close allies in the Australian Land forces by delivering our newest generation of proven C5I Battle Management System capability ahead of schedule,” said Bill Guyan, senior vice president and general manager of the Leonardo DRS Land Electronics business unit. “In today’s complex threat environment, it is paramount to ensure these critical capabilities are ready to be fielded as soon as possible,” he said.

Network computing and integration is a key strategic focus for the DRS as it continues to be the leading provider of advanced C5 technologies with the U.S. military and allied militaries around the world. The combat-proven, ruggedized systems enable increased data and communications needed for targeting, situational awareness and Battle Management Systems in multi-domain battlefield operations. The company is investing in the future of C5 through the development of the next-generation of tactical computing systems, AI processing solutions and advanced C5ISR/EW Modular Open Suite of Standards/ Sensor Open System Architecture aligned mounted systems – all aimed at enabling future network and platform processing to improve sensor fusion, situational awareness, and reduce the cognitive burden for commanders and crews.
