BAE Systems (BA.L) said it received a $37.6 million contract from the Letterkenny Army Depot to provide the spare parts and kits needed to convert 250 RG33 Mine Resistant Ambush Protected or MRAP vehicles into Medium Mine Protected Vehicles or MMPV, a 6×6 state-of-the-art wheeled military vehicle.
The company said it will provide a rear ramp, used for the deployment of remotely operated unmanned ground vehicles in route and area clearance missions, and a new heating and air conditioning system for the vehicle.
The spare parts and kits will be assembled by the existing workforce at the BAE Systems facility in Anniston, Alabama.
