Lockheed Martin has been awarded a $72 million contract to provide the C4ISR system for a Coast Guard cutter.
Lockheed will install the system on the National Security Cutter USCGC Midgett. The NSC's C4ISR system integrates data from navigation sensors, communications links and tactical systems to provide an operational picture of its patrol area, according to Ed Segrest, program manager for communications and security technologies at Lockheed Martin Mission Systems and Training.
"The system provides the underway crew with the most current maritime data and tactical picture for effective decision making and safety in maritime operations," he said.
