SAIC has won a $70 million U.S. Navy task order to provide radar systems support for the Radar Technologies Division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division.
As part of this new work, SAIC will deliver lifecycle development and sustainment for mission-ready radar, radio frequency, and microwave systems across surface, air and maritime domains.
This includes the design, engineering support, configuration management and technical services needed for real-time object detection, tracking, and characterization for warfighters in domestic and international locations, the company said.
These advanced radar capabilities enable better update rates, longer-range detection, improved electronic protection techniques and fire control quality tracking.
“This award underscores SAIC’s long-standing dedication to equipping the U.S. Navy with advanced radar and electronic warfare capabilities that enhance its operational superiority,” said Barbara Supplee, SAIC executive vice president of the Army Navy business group.
“By leveraging our extensive technical expertise and a track record of successful execution, we deliver cutting-edge software techniques and engineering expertise which allows radar systems to excel in real-world conditions, ensuring reliable performance and scalability across a wide range of mission requirements.”
Under the contract, SAIC will support a range of radar and defense systems for NSWC Crane, including SPS-48E/49 search radars, SPQ-9B multi-function radar, SPS-67 surface search and navigation radar, MK-99 Fire Control System, SPY-1 and SPY-6 AEGIS systems and G/ATOR.
“This tasking allows SAIC to enhance system performance, improve lifecycle sustainment, and drive development of next-generation capabilities,” the company added. SAIC will closely collaborate with Navy partners to ensure systems are designed, tested and refined to meet real mission conditions.
