INVISIO has received two orders from the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) for communications and hearing protection solutions for use on armoured fighting vehicles and in dismounted close combat.

The first order is for the INVISIO V-Series Gen II platform and is for use on armoured fighting vehicles. The solution offers the user efficient communication and unique dual hearing protection. This is achieved by combining already in-service INVISIO X5 in-the-ear headset and the T7 over-the-ear headset, which connects to an INVISIO control unit.

The solution with dual hearing protection sets a new standard for audio performance and hearing protection for extremely loud and critical environments within the defence and public safety markets for years to come.

The order comes via UK-partner Marlborough Communications Ltd (MCL) and deliveries will start in Q3, 2022.

"We are very proud that INVISIO will deliver our new dual hearing protection system to one of the most demanding and challenging environments that a tracked vehicle within the military constitutes. The order further strengthens our market position and opens up the possibility of follow-up orders," said Lars Højgård Hansen, CEO of INVISIO.

INVISIO has also received a second order for the MoD, for further deliveries to the Tactical Hearing Protection System Dismounted Close Combat Users programme (THPS DCCU). The order value amounts to approximately SEK 29 million and deliveries are planned for Q2 and Q3, 2022.

The THPS DCCU is the modernisation programme for hearing protection and communications systems of the UK MoD. The order also comes via Marlborough Communications Ltd (MCL).
