General Dynamics to continue US Army LT2 work
General Dynamics will continue to manage the US Army's Live Training Transformation (LT2) product line, the company announced on 23 February.
A team led by the company has been awarded the LT2 Consolidated Product-line Management (CPM) Next contract by the army. The team won the original CPM programme contract in 2009. The new CPM Next contract is a five-year, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract with a total potential value of $415 million.
With the CPM Next contract, the team will continue to manage the army's LT2 live training systems and product line, including close to 300 training ranges around the world. The LT2 line includes live force-on-force and force-on-target training that scales individual soldiers to brigades.
Chris Marzilli, president, General Dynamics Mission Systems, said: 'Over the past five years, General Dynamics has delivered exceptionally well on our promise to the army, helping them to save hundreds of millions of dollars in training system sustainment and maintenance costs.'
With the LT2 CPM Next contract, the army aims to continue to reduce the costs and complexity of maintaining its training systems portfolio. The General Dynamics team will also integrate new training capabilities.
