The Modular Integrated Protection System (MIPS) programme is the UK Ministry of Defence’s (MOD’s) approach for the development of a Sovereign Active Protection Capability for the UK Military Vehicle Fleet.
The latest Implementation Phase will mature the MIPS architecture standard and provide a Vehicle Controller module which allows rapid integration of survivability technology onto platforms and enables Through Life Capability Management and Technology Insertion. As Principal Systems Integrator on MIPS, Leonardo is leading a team of defence companies tasked with improving the survivability and protection of Land Armoured Vehicles in the British Army.
