SAIC-led Consortium Wins $95 Million NATO Missile Defense Contract

September 18, 2006 :: Reuters :: News

NATO has awarded a $95 million contract to an international consortium led by U.S.-based Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) to integrate the Active Layered Theater Ballistic Missile Defense (ALTBMD) currently being developed in Europe. The project will network existing and future national missile defense systems, sensors, battle management and command, control, and communications systems. The total cost for NATO is expected to be $823 million, while the cost of individual weapons systems to be bought separately by national governments is expected to be much higher. The SAIC-led consortium also includes Raytheon from the U.S., Thales of France, IABG and Diehl from Germany, Britain’s Qinetiq, the Dutch company TNO, DATAMAT from Italy, and the European satellite giant EADS Asterism. (Article)
