YORK, Pa., Feb. 24 (UPI) -- The U.S. Army has contracted BAE Systems to support the restoration of Bradley tactical vehicles to pre-combat operational readiness.
British company BAE received the award from the Army Tank-Automotive Command, Life Cycle Management Command. Under the $74 million contract, BAE will procure long-lead material kits to support a rebuild of Bradley vehicles damaged in combat zones.
BAE says the new contract will fund the purchase of 101 kits to reset and upgrade Bradley Operation Desert Storm Situational Awareness vehicles to a pre-combat readiness.
"The restoration of the Bradley sustains its life and provides a reliable and efficient vehicle for our war fighters as they complete their missions," Joe McCarthy, BAE Systems Heavy Brigade Combat Team System vice president and general manager, said in a statement.
"The procurement of these essential parts will help to ensure that we provide the best possible modernized vehicle to our customer."
