STERLING HEIGHTS (BNS): General Dynamics has received a $60 million extended contract form US Army TACOM Lifecycle Management Command for the upgradation of M1A1 tanks of the M1A2 Systems Enhancement Package (SEP) V2 configuration.

The most technologically advanced digital tank, the M1A2 SEP V2 includes improved color displays, day and night thermal sights, commander remote operated weapon station (CROWS II), a Thermal Management System (TMS) and a tank-infantry phone.

The M1A2 SEP V2 maximizes the fighting ability of the tank on today's battlefield while preparing the platform for tomorrow's challenges.

The original order was made under a multi-year contract awarded in February 2008, which authorized the upgrade of 435 M1A1 tanks that have been in the US Army's inventory for more than 20 years.
