ST Engineering's Electronics Arm Secures $16.9 M MINDEF Contract to Supply Thermal Weapon Sights Singapore Technologies Engineering Ltd (ST Engineering) announced that its electronics arm, Singapore Technologies Electronics Limited (ST Electronics), has been awarded a $16.9m contract by the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) for the supply of lightweight thermal weapon sights to the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF). The contract was awarded through ST Electronics' subsidiary, STELOP Pte Ltd. The project will start immediately and be completed in 2009. The thermal weapon sights will be mounted onto general purpose machine guns, enabling the gunners to detect and engage targets at long range, day or night, as well as under adverse weather and harsh operational environmental conditions, e.g. through battlefield smoke. The lightweight thermal weapon sight serves to enhance the night-fighting capabilities of the SAF by extending the night observation and engagement range of its crew-served weapons. |
