The Defense Department said Thursday the company will perform work under the firm-fixed-price contract in Rolling Meadows, Illinois through April 1, 2024.
LAIRCM is equipped with an ultraviolet missile warning sensor, a laser transmitter assembly, a control interface unit and processors designed to help military users detect and counter incoming IR missiles.
Ohio-based 645th Aeronautical Systems Group is the contracting activity.
