Selected under Phase II ICATS programme, the company will design and test two ICATS prototypes over the next year.
The company’s ICATS solution will enable USMC scout snipers and reconnaissance marines in successfully completing their missions.
The solution can be clipped onto marines to provide users with critical information even in low light or bad weather and also provide imaging at a greater range at the same time.
It builds on the company’s offering of other precision targeting capabilities to the US military, including Next Generation Hand-Held Targeting System and Multi-Domain User Sensor Architecture (MDUSA).
