On a second contract, KWESST said it is in similar discussions with its NATO customer for the Company's Battlefield Laser Detection System (BLDS) to add to the scope of work and value of the project.

在第二份合同中，KWESST表示，正在與北約客戶就該公司的戰地激光探測系統（BLDS）進行類似的討論，以擴大該項目的工作範圍和價值。Luxton說：“我們認爲，2022年12月12日宣佈的這項訂單可能會擴大最終用戶客戶的工作範圍，他們對BLDS系統的更廣泛功能表示了興趣，這將擴大該項目。”
