A Textron (NYSE: TXT) subsidiary has received a $92.54 million contract from the U.S. Army for the production of a transceiver and antenna system designed to provide warfighters with full-motion video, images and geospatial data for situational awareness.

Hunt Valley, Maryland-based Textron Systems will work on the One System Remote Video Terminal and provide related logistics services for an estimated period ending on Feb. 7, 2024, the Department of Defense said Thursday.
