ISR systems may include surveillance programs, systems, networks, and tactical data communications systems including automated radio communications systems, satellite terminal systems, and space, air, land & water autonomous or non- autonomous systems that could be used in ISR operations. Contract activities may be performed throughout the world. In addition, work may be performed on-board afloat vessels (including U. S.
