ENDICOTT — The U.S. Army has named one of its Paladin Integrated Management (PIM) self-propelled howitzer systems the “Endicott” after the BAE Systems location in Endicott.

The Army selected the howitzer names based on locations where development or testing activities are taking place that support the PIM program. BAE Systems develops the onboard power-management system, vetronics control and distribution module, drivers display software, and diagnostic and system-health software for the PIM program. The PIM howitzer is a semi-automated, electronically controlled, 39-caliber, 155mm artillery firing platform designed for the Army’s Armored Brigade Combat Teams.

The army selected the local BAE site for its program performance during and after the 2011 flood, which destroyed the company’s Johnson City site.
