It look like an old contract from 2010-2012 finally being shipped to Oman, Jordan and Indonesia, helping the friendlies with the Sunni-Shiite imbroglio, what's odd is the Contracting Agency is Redstone Arsenal for the US Navy in support of the named countries but 260 rounds is nowhere close to the Contract total. About 20 Million, at @ $75k for the Munitions and the other $47 Million? The retro-fit, I believe, is for the Guidance System. The modification could not possibly be that expensive, maybe some protection money for Yemeni Warlords in there. Jordan has a sliver of coast on the Gulf of Aqaba, Oman, next door to Yemen, yes, they need strengthening. eMagin supplies the display for the Thermal Sight. Maybe our Stock Guru buddy has a point.
