- the company said.
As indicated, the RIwP is already in service with the US Army, acting both as a short-range air defense system [being equipped with the M-SHORAD armored vehicle] and as a C-SAT UAV counteraction complex. Now this modular combat station is being offered for the first time to a foreign customer, the British Army.
