21st century soldier

The Defence Ministry has prepared an ambitious project called 21st Century Soldier, which is supposed to provide state-of-the-art arms and equipment to smaller groups of soldiers to make the army units more operational and independent. This rearmament includes a tender for new assault rifles, which has been won by Ceska zbrojovka Uhersky Brod. The contract worth CZK 2 bln has already been signed by Defence Minister Martin Bartak.  Source:  LN 9
