As of March 12,2019 the MIDS Program Office (MPO) contracted for 2974 MIDS Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) Terminals, of which 1635 have been delivered and accepted by the government. This is an increase of over 500 terminals from December 2017. Together with over 10,000 MIDS-Low Volume Terminal (LVT) Terminals procured and delivered, these milestones reflect the strong commitment by the United States, the 5-Nation Partners covered under the International Program Office (IPO) Program Memorandum of Understanding, and our industry partners to deliver interoperable, affordable and secure Link 16 and programmable networking technologies for the Joint, Coalition, and International Warfighter. The MIDS-LVT Block Upgrade 2 (BU2) hardware and software development contract was awarded in November 2013. This Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) provides the critical upgrades to meet the National Security Agency mandate for Crypto Modernization (CM) and National Telecommunications and Information Agency and Federal Aviation Agency mandate for Frequency Remapping (FR) capability to the MIDS-LVT terminal. MIDS-LVT BU2 is undergoing formal government qualification acceptance testing, and preparing for platform integration and retrofit production activities for 4th quarter FY 2019.
