DRS Technologies moved closer to contracting its Target Location Designation System with the recent conclusion of the product’s critical design review.
The milestone finalizes the engineering and production processes of the TLDS, dubbed the Mojave, designed to speed up and refine target engagement in battlefield operations, DRS said Tuesday.
“[The DRS team] is actively working toward testing the current production model of the Mojave system as they move into the next phase of the program,” said Shawn Black, vice president and general manager for network computing and imaging systems at DRS.
He indicated that the company also relied on its partners to help bring the U.S. Army program to fruition.
“Our suppliers on the program were also key to the team’s success by building sample hardware while conducting early tests to demonstrate the significant technologies of the Mojave design,” Black said.
