Navy awards $300M for C5ISR and radio systems

By: Mark Pomerleau

BAE Systems was awarded a pair of contracts worth $300 million that will support the Navy in digital endeavors.

The first is a $212 million contract from the Navy's Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division to integrate and sustain critical communications systems. As part of the contract, BAE will design, acquire, integrate and test radio systems for new guided missile destroyers specifically, as well as other unspecified Navy and Coast Guard ships.

The second contract is a $104.7 award from the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division for engineering and technical services for command, control, communications, computers, combat systems, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C5ISR) systems both afloat and ashore.

“Maintaining reliable lines of communication and situational awareness for those at the forefront of national security is a mission-critical priority for BAE Systems and our customers,” said Mark Keeler, vice president and general manager of BAE Systems' Integrated Defense Solutions business. “We're proud to continue supporting the integration of combat systems and solutions for the U.S. Navy as they defend against advanced air, surface, and subsurface threats.”

    Bilan de Florence Parly : des exportations qui atteignent des sommets jamais atteints

    DÉFENSE Bilan de Florence Parly : des exportations qui atteignent des sommets jamais atteints En cinq ans à l'Hôtel de Brienne, la ministre des Armées Florence Parly a permis à la France de renforcer ses exportations dans le monde, avec des montants croissants chaque année. C'est surtout en 2021 que les exportations ont atteint des sommets, totalisant plus de 65 Md€ d'exportations sur le quinquennat. En 2022, Dassault Aviation a déjà engrangé deux méga contrats (80 Rafale aux Émirats arabes unis et 42 en Indonésie) ainsi que six appareils supplémentaires en Grèce. Le ministère des Armées estime d'ores et déjà que les exportations vont s'élever pour les années 2021 et 2022 à un montant cumulé de plus de 30 Md€. Au total, depuis son arrivée au ministère des Armées en 2017, Florence Parly a aidé à la vente de 201 Rafale, sur les 285 vendus à l'export depuis 2015. Au-delà de tous ces succès, Florence Parly a souhaité faire de l'Europe une priorité des exportations d'armement françaises : la part de la zone Europe a atteint en 2019 et 2020 un niveau significatif, respectivement 45% et 25% des prises de commande. Des niveaux jamais atteints jusqu'ici. La Tribune du 30 mars
