CGI to Help UK’s Defense Ministry Train, Operate Fire Control Application

CGI has been selected to support the U.K. military’s fire control battlefield information system application and fire control application system.

CGI will provide software applications support for FC BISA and the FCA, and hardware support for the FCA handheld computer platform.

The British artillery and infantry provides indirect fire support for operations that use the FC BISA system.
