US Army has released new and important information related to the future CROWS program procurement. This announcement refers to a future request for proposal for the next phase of the CROWS Program for the US Army.
"The information from US Army is a confirmation of the leading quality and performance position of the KONGSBERG CROWS system. I view this announcement as very encouraging for us in the upcoming competition for the next phase of the CROWS Program," says Walter Qvam, President and CEO. The US acquisition laws require competition to ensure the US Government the best business, contracting and technical solutions. KONGSBERG has delivered over 10,000 remote weapon stations to date and is the supplier for the US Army’s current CROWS program. Given this production experience and capacity as well as in-depth knowledge of the CROWS design, and a proven ability to adapt to volume fluctuations, places KONGSBERG in a strong competitive position for the future US Army competition.
