The AN/SWG-5(V)6 upgrade offers new offensive capabilities to upgraded US Navy ships in support of the Maritime Strike Tomahawk, addresses obsolescence risks and improves the operability and maintainability of the system hardware.
The IDIQ’s ordering period will run for five years until January 2025.
