This is the culmination of an extensive and exhaustive evaluation and trial program conducted by the UK MoD. The BSA and CVRS successfully met all of the MoD's stringent operational requirements. Capewell have also recently received an order for two ship sets of the BSA and CVRS from the Swedish Air Force.
