ARLINGTON (dpa-AFX) - The U.S. Army and BAE Systems (BA.L) finalized a contract modification worth over $390 million to upgrade additional Bradley Fighting Vehicles for Soldiers.
The order of enhanced, future-ready Bradley A4s will be delivered to the Army as the modern replacement to former variants, greatly improving lethality, survivability, and safety.
'Lethality, performance and next-generation capability is what the Bradley A4 brings to the fight,' said Bill Sheehy, Ground Maneuver product line director for BAE Systems. 'It's critical that we continue upgrading Bradleys to the modern A4 configuration so that warfighters have the equipment they need to dominate. This award not only fuels our commitment to keep the Army and our allies ready for the fight, but it also ensures our U.S. manufacturing lines stay hot and ready for continued production.'
The Bradley A4 is a critical, next-generation capability in the Army's Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) formation. Built with proven durability and commonality of design to reduce the logistics burden in the motorpool, the platform features digitized electronics for optimum situational awareness, network connectivity and communication within the ABCT, further increasing the ability to defeat any adversary no matter the terrain, temperature or threat.
