REVISION WINS NEW $20 MILLION CONTRACT TO SUPPLY SILENT WATCH BATTERY PACK SYSTEMS FOR CANADA'S RECONNAISSANCE LIGHT ARMORED VEHICLES.

Revision Military,a world leader in integrated,  purpose-built soldier systems, has won a $20 million, multi-year contract through General Dynamics Land Systems Canada to provide Energy Storage Systems to retrofit RECCE 6.0 LAV vehicles that will silently power on-board sensor suites.  Revision is the supplier of protective eyewear and the new Cobra helmet to the UK Ministry of Defence.

The Revision system, built around its Nerv Centr™ SWatPack™ scalable battery system, is capable of operating in a wide range of hot and cold temperatures and climatic conditions beyond the objective eight-hours of Silent Watch powering time.  The Revision battery system provides more silent watch time than 30 standard 6T format AGM batteries at less than half the weight.

This fully customized, ballistic-protected solution re-purposes the winch pocket on the RECCE 6.0 LAV vehicles to house this optimized energy storage with a plug-and-play modular solution that can be serviced in the field. 

"Both the silent watch energy storage solution and winning this contract are a testament to the Revision team of experts from the industrial designers, engineers and software programmers to the technical support and product management personnel. Everyone worked together to ensure a unique result for the Canadian DND" said Alex Hooper, the UK based International Vice President Sales of Revision.  He further stated, "Power is possibly one of the most critical elements for success on the battlefield today, whether for the individual soldier to ensure uninterrupted performance of his powered gear or for situations where silent delivery of power in varying conditions over an eight hour time frame is essential. 

"Revision is a solutions provider that employs science, cutting-edge technology and an innovation-driven approach to solving complex battlefield problems.  We are excited to demonstrate our capabilities in the field of energy storage and power management with this contract."

Development of scalable, upgradable vehicular power management and energy storage capabilities is a natural extension for Revision as the principles behind the design of this example, the Silent Watch Battery System, draw on the philosophy of providing technologically advanced products that focuses on meeting mission needs.  This design philosophy has allowed Revision to deliver numerous protective products to individual soldiers from lightweight helmets to integrated facial protection, ballistic eyewear and personal power systems.
