IS4S Wins Follow-On Software Modification Contract for Vehicle Monitoring & Diagnostics
Huntsville, AL
IS4S announced that it has been awarded a $271,000 follow-on software development contract by Textron Systems Marine and Land Systems (M&LS). IS4S will modify its existing vehicle software for the transfer of information between vehicle sub-systems on board Textron Systems Tactical Armored Patrol Vehicle (TAPV) currently under contract with the Canadian government. The software modifications will enable more efficient data dissemination and onboard storage of diagnostic information. Textron Systems' TAPV is a 4x4 wheeled armored vehicle specifically engineered and designed to provide survivability, mobility, and versatility across the asymmetric battlefield over the full spectrum of operations. The comprehensive, modern design is aimed at shielding troops from roadside bombs and blasts while providing large power reserves for future electronics enhancements, with an ergonomically designed interior for optimum comfort and payload. The vehicle has been tested extensively to confirm ballistic, blast, mobility, and reliability levels that meet or exceed the Canadian TAPV requirements.
