Letterkenny Army Depot Overhauls Avenger system
In support of one of the Army Chief of Staff’s priority initiatives, Letterkenny Army Depot, a subordinate unit of the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command, recently completed the overhaul of 72 Avenger systems.
Air and missile defense capabilities that ensure our Soldiers are protected from modern and advanced air and missile delivered Fires including drones, is one of six modernization priorities laid out by the U.S. Army Chief of Staff, Gen. Mark Milley, last fall.
The 72 Avengers will be used as part of the European Deterrence Initiative, a series of defense initiatives that enhance the United States’ deterrence posture and improve the readiness and responsiveness of U.S. forces in Europe.
“This capability gives combat units the ability to maneuver, even when facing threats from close air attacks,” said U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command commander Maj. Gen. Doug Gabram. “That’s a key component of what we need to fight and win.”
