DRS Network & Imaging Systems has received a contract to provide Mounted Family of Computer Systems (MFoCS) II for the US Army, the US Department of Defense announced on 25 May.
The IDIQ contract has a ceiling of $841.5 million. The ordering period for the initial five-year base period is from May 2018 through May 2023 with five one-year option periods.
The MFoCS is a modular family of computer systems that integrate networked-battle command information system capabilities onto a common computing platform. It supports situational awareness, C2 and manoeuvre capability using next-generation computing and display hardware at multiple configurable levels.
The MFoCS includes dismountable tablets, processor units, keyboard units, removable solid-state disk storage, display units and cabling designed for various platforms. All the components are ruggedised for continuous operation in a wide range of battlefield environments.
