MDA Space Ltd. has announced the awarding of next phase contracts valued at $60 million for the delivery and integration of critical sensor systems on the River-class Destroyer program. This initiative will enhance situational awareness and protect the ships against laser and optical guided threats. The sensors are being designed and developed in Richmond, B.C., Halifax, N.S., and Brampton, Ontario. The River-class Destroyers, once completed, will serve as advanced multi-mission combat ships for the Royal Canadian Navy. The project is a part of Canada's National Shipbuilding Strategy, with Irving Shipbuilding Inc. constructing the ships at Halifax Shipyard. Lockheed Martin Canada is leading the combat management system design and integration, with contributions from MDA Space and other industry partners.
