The contractor will also provide services to support GPS-based range equipment, airborne electronic warfare systems, warning and countermeasures systems and range radio-frequency/electro-optical tracking systems and deliver test support and instrumentation for aerial drones and remote data sources. The work also includes field service support at more than nine test locations.

“SAIC’s expertise in systems integration and engineering provides solutions to support the U.S. Navy’s testing and training needs,” Bob Genter, president of SAIC’s defense and civilian sector, said in a statement. “We are excited to build on our progress and continue our work at the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division.”

Primarily based in California, the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division researches, develops, tests, evaluates and sustains integrated, interoperable ware fighting capabilities.
