This marks iGov's second major DO award and follows the $52.5 million TACP MCS Block 1 contract awarded in January 2016.

Under the TACP-MCS Block 2 contract, iGov will modify the M1165 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) armored variant used by Air Force Tactical Air Control Party operators.

Work will be performed at iGov's Tampa, Florida facility and is expected to be complete by January 2024.

"This award confirms recognition that iGov provides the Air Force an innovative and experienced team capable of effective delivery of reliable solutions."

"With MCS Block 2, the Air Force is going to receive a mature solution built upon the capabilities we are successfully fielding for MCS Block 1," said Chuck Reiche, Senior Vice President of Business Development. "We are committed to excellence as we continue to provide Air Force TACP operators the communications systems they need to successfully execute their missions."
