GTACS II is a 10-year contract vehicle awarded to 22 companies to provide global tactical advanced communication systems to the US Army and its allies. It covers hardware and software engineering; program management and analysis; onsite engineering support; supply chain management; and systems engineering services to facilitate the delivery of data and voice communications.

NewSat North America, a leading Command, Control, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) provider, announced today they have been awarded a Global Tactical Advanced Communication Systems II (GTACS II) Task Order (TO) by U.S. Army Contracting Command – Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) on behalf of the U.S. Army Communications-Electronics Command (CECOM) Security Assistance Management Directorate (SAMD).

Under this multi-million-dollar Foreign Military Sales (FMS) TO, NewSat will provide a system-wide upgrade for the Jordanian Border Security Program (JBSP) to addresses obsolescence issues and enhancing the Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) capabilities to detect, interdict, and deter illegal border crossing attempts while maintaining the existing system architecture, whenever and wherever possible.

"NewSat has supported the US Army and Foreign Military Sales since our inception", said Andrew Williams, Program Director of NewSat. "This new award further expands our global reach and is further evidence of the confidence that the U.S Government has in our ability to provide our Allies mission critical support in austere environments".
