The U.S. Army Program Executive Office for Intelligence, Electronic Warfare and Sensors (PEO IEW&S) recently announced that the TRX DAPS GEN II solution has received approval for Full-Rate Production (FRP).
Attending AUSA 2024 next week in Washington, DC? Come visit the TRX team in booth #3348 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center to learn more about TRX DAPS II - the most advanced navigational system available for the dismounted soldier.
Built to the demanding requirements of a U.S. Army Program of Record, TRX DAPS II is a state-of-the-art navigation system developed to replace the legacy Defense Advanced GPS Receiver (DAGR). The U.S. Army awarded a $9.9 million contract to TRX Systems this week for the DAPS GEN II system, as described in this recent Department of Defense announcement. This award is a follow-on delivery order from the seven-year $402 million IDIQ contract awarded to TRX Systems in March 2023 by the U.S. Army Program Executive Office for Intelligence, Electronic Warfare and Sensors (PEO IEW&S) to deliver DAPS GEN II systems.
The Army’s Project Manager Positioning, Navigation, and Timing’s (PM PNT) Dismounted team announced the accomplishment of a major milestone this month – completion of the Initial Operational Test and Evaluation (IOT&E) of the TRX DAPS GEN II solution.
This is exciting news, coming just a few weeks after TRX’s recent news release announcing that our DAPS GEN II solution is in production and shipping, just five months after a $402 Million Program of Record award from the U.S. Army. TRX Systems announced today that it is now shipping the Dismounted Assured Positioning, Navigation, and Timing System Generation II (DAPS GEN II) solution, which provides Assured PNT to warfighters operating in GPS-denied environments. Just five months after the U.S. Army Program of Record award, the DAPS GEN II solution, known as TRX DAPS II, is in production and shipping.
In August, TRX Systems participated in the Sennybridge23 NavWar Trial conducted in Wales, United Kingdom (UK). Organized by the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), which is part of the UK Ministry of Defence, this event gave participating organizations an invaluable opportunity to evaluate warfighter solutions in GNSS-denied conditions.
Along with partner Cascade Aviation & Marine (CAM), TRX was invited to Sennybridge23 to demonstrate and test its NEON PT-MIL solution. NEON PT-MIL extends the capabilities of ATAK-equipped warfighters, enabling them to better operate and maintain situational awareness in GNSS-denied situations. Last week, TRX Systems participated in the 2023 Arctic Warrior Experiment (AWE-23) in Rena, Norway which sought new solutions for increasing warfighter capabilities in challenging Arctic environments. In conjunction with our partner, Precision Technic Defense (PTD), TRX was invited to AWE-23 to address the challenges of GNSS-denied operation and navigation.
TRX Systems is now shipping TRX DAPS devices in volume to the U.S. Army. In 2021, the Army selected TRX to deliver a next-generation DAPS solution enabling warfighters to better target, maneuver, and communicate in GPS-degraded or denied operational environments. Only eight months after the production contract award, TRX began delivering this Quick Reaction Capability (QRC) to the Army.
At the recent JNC 2022 conference in San Diego, TRX showcased how our NEON PT-MIL solution can help warfighters maintain situational awareness in GPS-denied environments. As explained in this short video from the show, NEON PT-MIL provides dismounted soldiers with continuous and reliable position data, even when GPS/GNSS signals are unavailable or intentionally corrupted by jamming or spoofing attacks. |
