L3 Technologies has received a three-year, $391 million contract from the US Army Contracting Command to provide the Enhanced Night Vision Goggle – Binocular (ENVG-B), the company announced on 18 June.
The ENVG-B includes L3’s white phosphor image intensification technology in a dual-tube goggle, as well as a separate thermal channel for image fusion and thermal target detection. The technology will increase the user's ability to locate and engage threats and access common operating environment imagery.
The ENVG-B will also include a new high-resolution display and an embedded soldier wireless personal area network, rapid target acquisition and augmented reality algorithms to interface with the US Army’s Nett Warrior. The complete system will interface with the army’s next-generation family of weapon sights, while enhancing interoperability and data sharing.
The series of exercises focuses on war fighting in the urban environment with the intention of aligning experimentation to tactical functions and integrating them all during a final experiment.
Avon Protection has supplied millions of M50/M51 and M53/M53A1 air purifying respirators (APRs) in use across all branches of the US military for chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) protection.
The new contract follows on from a US$13.3 million deal signed in 2023 for Teledyne FLIR to extend the capabilities of its R80D SkyRaider UAS to carry out chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) missions.
