Boeing subsidiary to support TacMobile
Tapestry Solutions, a subsidiary of Boeing, has been awarded a contract by the US Navy to provide technical services and support for its Tactical Mobile (TacMobile) programme, the company announced on 8 June.
The five-year contract includes design, development, manufacturing, fielding, training, post-fielding maintenance and the disposal of obsolete equipment. It has an initial value of $8.4 million and could rise to $76.2 million.
The TacMobile programme provides mobile and fixed-site C4I capabilities. Its ground elements support data processing, mission planning and data analysis for P-8A and P-3C aircraft in anti-submarine warfare and ISR missions.
Geoff Evans, general manager, logistics information management systems, Tapestry Solutions, said: 'This contract enables us to continue working with the US Navy to effectively operate and support both current and future TacMobile solutions. Our solution will permit naval commanders to direct and control sophisticated air missions, including sensitive data sharing between coalition forces.'
