Since December 2012, Meggitt Training Systems (MTS) has been awarded delivery orders worth $7.9 million to support the US Army’s Targetry Systems programme with TACOM, the US Army Contracting Command in Warren, Michigan—one of the Army’s largest weapon systems research and development organisations. The programme is part of an effort to provide equipment for live-fire training ranges at US Army installations worldwide.

Under these orders, MTS will deliver some 1,100 infantry and armour units, both stationary and mobile. Equipment will be delivered across 10 military installations.

Delivery orders are open to competition amongst Meggitt Training Systems, Lockheed Martin, Action Target, Strategic Systems and Saab Training.

Ronald Vadas, President of Meggitt Training Systems commented: “Award of these delivery orders is a further testament to the strength of our 16-year relationship with the US Army and we look forward to continuing to respond to its evolving range development and moderniation requirements.”
