Palomar To Provide Military Display Systems For US Army's Abrams Tank

Palomar Display Products has won a $4.6million contract from the US Army Contracting Command to deliver military display systems for the M1A2 Abrams tank.

These thermal sight, optically coupled displays have been designed and qualified for the M1A2 Abrams tank and will be delivered to the US Army for an international customer, the company announced Tuesday.

All deliveries under this contract will take place through 2016.

"This repeat award contributes to our 2016 backlog," said Palomar Display Products President Paul Bell. "We were again selected to provide a critical component to the most advanced fighting vehicle in the world. This solidifies Palomar's position as the primary supplier of thermal sight displays for the US and International armored vehicle market." Bell added.
