Elbit Systems hasbeen
awarded a contract from the Australian Defence Force (ADF) for the supply of Battle
Management Systems (BMS) for the Royal Australian Navy's landing craft.
The systems are to be integrated
into landing craft installed on board the Canberra Class Amphibious ships (LHD).
The watercraft will enable transport
of troops and equipment from the LHDs to the shore including where there are no
fixed port facilities and will allow communication and connectivity with the
Infantry Forces in joint operations.
