Navistar wins military sale

Warrenville-baesd Navistar Defense Tuesday announced that it has made a new foreign military sale to the Israel Ministry of Defense.

Under the $12 million contract, Navistar will deliver 114 medium tactical vehicles by June 2010. In addition to the Israel contract, the company also received a second four-year, System Technical Support contract for up to $78 million to support its International MaxxPro Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles.

Though the company will target growth in markets outside the United States as part of its 2010 strategy, the company remains dedicated to its U.S. customers. Under Navistar's four-year STS contract, the company will provide hardware to accompany work conducted under the previous MRAP STS engineering award announced November 9, which is also a four-year contract for up to $78 million.
