Serco has won a $38 million U.S. Army contract to upgrade the High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP), protection portion of the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System radar.
According to the company, the system supports the mission at Thule Air Force Base in Greenland.
The contract for a period of five years was competitively bid and awarded under the Corps of Engineers.
Serco will strengthen and upgrade the radar's HEMP protection with a design-build-install-test approach supporting U.S. Air Force Space and Strategic commands.
Earlier, Serco has upgraded HEMP systems based at Clean Air Force Station, Alaska, Cavalier Air Force Station, N.D., Cape Cod Air Force Station, Mass., and RAF Flyingdales in the U.K.
