It helps in the detection and identification of diverse CBRNE materials in environmental samples.

The mobile units are adapted to conduct clinical specimen testing. Deployed to the epicenters of the pandemic within the US, they provide additional laboratory capacity supporting the increased testing activities.

Kratos C5ISR Division president Tom Mills said: “Kratos C5ISR is a key collaborator on the team of suppliers that provides the ALS mobile laboratory system to the warfighter.

“This critical platform was specifically designed and put in place to increase our nation’s readiness against a number of chemical and biological threats.”

Kratos won an initial contract in August 2015 to design and manufacture four prototype next-generation ALS shelter systems.

The systems featured multiple design enhancements and addressed issues and optimised the soldier’s ability to analyse data.

Currently, the production for three additional orders for a total of 67 ALS units is underway.
