WASHINGTON, Sept. 23 (UPI) -- DRS Network and Imaging Systems has been awarded a $339 million firm-fixed-price contract for the U.S. Army's Joint Effects Targeting System. Work locations and funding will be determined with each order.
The estimated completion date is September 2021.

The Joint Effects Targeting System is an Army-led, joint-interest program with the Air Force and Marine Corps to develop and field a one-man-portable, handheld capability to rapidly acquire, precisely locate and engage targets with precision-guided munitions while improving the effectiveness of engagement with unguided munitions.
The system allows small units supported by Army forward observers and joint tactical area communications systems to have access to precision targeting in all operational environments.
