The U.S. Army Communications-Electronics Command has awarded an $11.74 million contract to Raytheon for the production and delivery of 205 Global Broadcast Service transportable ground receive suites and associated spares.

The suites permit Army mobile users at the edge of the battlefield to receive data and video broadcast products and process them for use by military decision makers and frontline troops.

"Raytheon has supplied the Army with the GBS TGRS for several years while maintaining it fully compliant with all Army technical and logistical support needs," said Guy A. DuBois, vice president of Raytheon's Operational Technologies and Solutions.

The GBS provides joint tactical operators with high-speed, high-volume multimedia communications and information flow for forces on post, in transit, and in theater in support of the conduct of modern warfare.
