The US Department of Defense has contracted Elbit America to supply gunner hand stations for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle.
The firm-fixed-price delivery order supports the US Army with production to take place in Fort Worth, Texas.
Deliveries will begin in July 2024.
Gunner Hand Station
Bradley crews will use the gunner hand station to position the turret, enabling accurate targeting and firing.
It works in tandem with commander hand stations and sends signals to the turret fire control system.
“For more than 20 years, Elbit America has designed and manufactured the hand stations for Bradley variants,” Elbit America Vice President for Ground Combat and Precision Targeting Ridge Sower said.
“Our expertise [in] producing these components has led to modular designs and commonality across vehicle platforms. The end result is a superior, rugged solution that we can produce quickly and get to Soldiers on the battlefield.”
