L3 Technologies has secured a three-year contract worth $391m from the US Army Contracting Command to deliver enhanced night vision goggle-binocular (ENVG-B) systems.

The ENVG-B night vision goggles (NVGs) are slated to be integrated into the US Army’s next-generation family of weapon sights in order to enhance its interoperability and data sharing capabilities.

The next-generation binocular NVGs are equipped with a thermal channel that will help army personnel to detect thermal infrared targets.

US-based L3 Technologies is primarily focused on the provision of command and control, communications, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C3ISR) products and solutions for aerospace and defence applications.

KBRwyle, a provider of engineering, technical and scientific solutions for government customers, has been selected by the US Department of Defense (DoD) as one of the prime contractors for the Joint Test and Evaluation (JT&E) contract, which is valued at $900m.

"The Israeli Government has approved the proposed acquisition of IMI Systems Ltd by Elbit Systems for a sum of approximately NIS1.8bn ($495m)."

The DoD’s JT&E programme will see KBRwyle provide a variety of rapid solutions to strengthen US warfighters’ ability to perform their missions using existing equipment and processes.
