SAN DIEGO. Cubic Corp. announced that its Cubic Global Defense (CGD) business division has been awarded a contract worth more than $61 million from the U.S. Army Contracting Command to support rotational and predeployment training exercises at the U.S. Army?s Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC).
Cubic will continue to help the JRTC to integrate U.S. and allied forces into rotational training exercises through scenarios focused on what the JRTC calls "decisive action" and theater-specific operational environments. Such exercises are conducted with units targeted for deployment in support of ongoing military operations overseas; they include situational training; live fire; force-on-force; and integrated live, virtual and constructive training. Cubic's services also extend to expanded role play, technical support for combat training instrumentation, battlefield effects, video, and cultural role players for enhanced realism.
The contracted amount is for the combined one-year phase-in and base period with four additional option years. Cubic will perform work in Fort Polk, Louisiana; the estimated completion date is November of 2022.
