TUCSON, April 5 (UPI) -- Raytheon and DRS Technologies are to jointly engineer, manufacture and develop a 3rd-Generation Forward Looking Infrared night vision B-Kit.
The kit will enable ground forces to discriminate between friend or foe at twice the distance of current night vision infrared systems and will be an upgrade to the 17,000 fielded 2nd-generation ground FLIR systems now in use.
