Description

General Dynamics Corp is a major U.S. defense contractor involved in the development and deployment of surveillance technologies used in border enforcement and immigrant monitoring. Between 2005 and 2019, the company was a key contractor for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), building a so-called "smart/virtual" border along the U.S.–Mexico. Its Remote Video Surveillance Systems (RVSS), equipped with day and night capable cameras mounted on vehicles, enable near-constant monitoring of border regions, giving authorities unprecedented oversight over the movement of migrants. General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT), the company’s IT and services arm, has expanded this surveillance infrastructure, including modernizing CBP’s tower systems under the Consolidated Tower & Surveillance Equipment (CTSE) program. These towers, deployed across southern border regions such as Arizona (Nogales, Naco, Yuma, and Ajo) and Texas’s Rio Grande Valley, concentrate state surveillance in communities where migrants are most vulnerable. Newer contracts also extend surveillance infrastructure to parts of the northern U.S. border with Canada, where surveillance towers are being installed or upgraded.
