TeleCommunication Systems announced that it has been awarded a new order with a ceiling value of $60.8 million to provide Tactical SHF Satellite Terminals (TSST) to the U.S. Army.
The order is initially funded at $53.1 million and will be funded up to a total of $60.8 million if the options are fully exercised.
