Andy Teich, president and CEO, FLIR Systems, said: 'We are pleased to provide these additional MSC integrated surveillance systems to the US Department of Homeland Security. Our ability to integrate advanced imaging and sensing systems has provided our customers with proven, reliable, and robust solutions for protecting borders and providing long-range situational awareness. We look forward to continuing our successful deployment of these systems with the US CBP in this important mission.'
