Video surveillance systems protecting U.S. Intercontinental Ballistic Missile sites are to receive integrated logistics support from Sentry View Systems Inc. Sentry View said the remote visual assessment video surveillance systems are located at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming; Hill Air Force Base, Utah; Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana; and Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota. The five-year U.S. Air Force award is worth more than $40 million. Under the contract, SVS will provide turnkey depot level logistics and maintenance support for multiple system components, including physical interfaces at launch facilities and monitoring stations and for surveillance and data transmission systems. "This is an exciting time in the growth of our company, and we are honored to have the opportunity to serve our country in this way," said Sentry View President and Chief Operations Officer Justin Thompson. Sentry View said it plans to expand personnel roster to fulfill the contract, with most new staff being located at the Air Force facilities.
