AgustaWestland awarded Lockheed Martin a $49.5 million sustainment and support contract for the Target Acquisition Designation Sight/Pilot Night Vision Sensor (TADS/PNVS) and Modernized TADS/PNVS (M-TADS/PNVS) systems on the U.K. Apache AH Mk-1 aircraft. The contract provides complete post-production services, including spare parts, in-country repair and technical services, as well as integrated logistics, engineering, and depot repair support. Support under the contract will continue through March 2014. Support activities will be performed in the U.K. and Orlando, FL.
The Pilot Night Vision Sensor increases pilot confidence, reduces pilot workload, and provides safe-flight capabilities in diminished flight visibility conditions such as brownouts, whiteouts, darkness, and adverse weather. Lockheed Martin
