The defense contractor delivered 142 major end items in total, including 35 Engagement Operations Centers, 32 Integrated Fire Control Network Relays, and 75 Integrated Collaborative Environments from its manufacturing facility in Huntsville, Alabama.
This milestone follows last year’s delivery of the first full set of IBCS major end items and represents a significant advancement in next-generation air-and-missile defense technology.
"Northrop Grumman’s delivery of IBCS MEIs to the U.S. Army underscores our commitment to deliver cutting-edge technology," said Jeremy Knupp, vice president of global command and control solutions at Northrop Grumman. "We have the manufacturing depth and capacity to deliver IBCS at speed, ensuring our armed forces are equipped to meet the challenges of modern warfare with enhanced situational awareness, decision-making precision and operational adaptability."
The company will now begin manufacturing the system under its full-rate production contract with the U.S. Army at its new Enhanced Production and Integration Center in Madison, Alabama. This facility will expand capacity for high-rate manufacturing programs.
The Integrated Battle Command System is the Army’s program of record for integrated air and missile defense.
