L-3 Communications has announced that the US Army's Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation has awarded L-3 MPRI a sole-source, follow-on contract for its Laser Marksmanship Training System (LMTS). This ID/IQ contract has an estimated value of $48.7 million over the initial base year and four option years. L-3 has received the program's first delivery order, valued at $15.5 million.
LMTS is a home station or deployed, multi-purpose, modular, scalable, small arms, individual and unit marksmanship sustainment simulator that provides Preliminary Marksmanship (PMI), advanced marksmanship and remedial training capabilities.
"MPRI is honoured to be afforded the opportunity to support the US Army's marksmanship training needs," said Bob Garner, senior vice president and general manager of MPRI's Training and Technology Group. "This program will enhance the skills and experience of our young soldiers and contribute to their survivability on the battlefield."
Headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, MPRI provides comprehensive and integrated programs that address training, education, leader development, organizational design and implementation, simulations, democracy transition and emergency management across a broad spectrum of functional areas. Its customers include the Department of Defence, Department of Justice, Department of State and selected international government agencies.
