Cubic Corporation (NYSE: CUB) today announced Cubic Defence
U.K., which operates within its Cubic Global Defense (CGD) business
division was awarded a contract worth more than $16 million to
continue the support of British Army training. The four-year
contract called SCOPIC 2, is for a fully managed service where

collective training at Salisbury Plain Training Area (SPTA) in the
United Kingdom; British Army Training Unit Suffield (BATUS) in
Alberta, Canada; and British Army Training Unit Kenya (BATUK).

“We are proud to continue supporting the British Army in
achieving mission readiness by delivering expeditionary and complex
tactical training at all levels,” said Mike Knowles, president of
Cubic Global Defense. “This contract award builds on the work we
have accomplished with both the existing SCOPIC contract and our
recent AWES award to deliver a world-class training
experience.”
The SCOPIC 2 system replaces battlefield capabilities that are
difficult to replicate in live collective training with simulation.
These may be complex systems such as unmanned air systems (UAS)
feeds or additional force elements providing context, including
flanking or depth activity. Examples of SCOPIC 2 capabilities
include UAS and targeting pod downlinks from Close Air Support
platforms; hand-held observation device emulations that allow
visualization of fall of shot from guns, missiles, mortars and
air-delivered weapons; emulated radar and electronic warfare (EW)
terminals that allow soldiers to locate the enemy; and ground based
air defense emulations. SCOPIC 2 captures and recreates these
activities for post-mission analysis.
Cubic first provided this capability under the MicroSCOPIC
contract awarded in 2016 and has deployed the system globally in
support of the British Army.
