The US Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) has selected KBR to install shore-based command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems at locations worldwide.
KBR is one of eight awardees on the Shore Global C4ISR Installations multiple award IDIQ contract which has a maximum ceiling of $986 million and includes an initial five-year base plus a five-year option.
The contract includes services such as C4ISR maintenance, modernisation and new system installation. These services can include decommissioning and modernisation of existing shore facilities, programme and project management, engineering designs and training as well as installation design and installation of integrated C4ISR systems.
Byron Bright, KBR president, US government solutions, said: ‘KBR is ready to ensure that the military has the necessary tools to keep its advantage on physical and virtual battlefields. A modern, top line C4ISR infrastructure is essential to making real-time threat analysis that leads to actionable insight, reducing risk to valuable assets and people.’
The airborne three-domain, the two ground-based and the ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based cross-domain systems were engineered to provide real-time security across multi-domain operations.
DARPA’s Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) programme was set up to develop an autonomous tactical network and enable critical data flow in contested environments.
Why space is an essential part of modern military capabilities
Defence-secure mixed reality headsets can save hours, or even weeks, of travel time to fix defunct equipment or get subject experts effectively “on-site” where they are needed.
The Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device Electronic Warfare (JCREW) counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) and Drone Restricted Access Using Known Electromagnetic Warfare (DRAKE) counter-UAS (CUAS) systems are mounted and dismounted RF jammers.
Adarga’s Vantage information analysis tool is in service with the UK MoD and individual UK forces. It builds on the company’s Knowledge Platform which processes, organises and analyses open source material, as well as information held by the user’s military, security and intelligence services.
