Collins Aerospace Announces DTCS Contract Extension to Support the ADF

Contract Continues Strong, 10 Year In-country Relationship

Collins Aerospace Systems, a unit of Raytheon Technologies Corp. (NYSE: RTX), today announced that it has been awarded a contract extension by the Australian Defence Force (ADF) worth about $1M to provide ongoing in-country support for the Digital Terminal Control System (DTCS).

The DTCS is a targeting system utilised by Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTACs) and Joint Forward Observers (JFOs) to request and coordinate offensive support missions delivered by land, sea or air platforms. Collins Aerospace has been supporting the DTCS in Australia for the past decade.

“This award extension demonstrates our continued utilisation of in-country capabilities to support local defence programs in Australia,” said Sonny Foster, managing director of Collins Aerospace in Australia. “We look forward to providing the ADF with subject matter expertise that leverages a decade of sustained knowledge developed in Australia by Collins Aerospace."
