About 2,000 of the company’s Cougar trucks that are being shifted from Iraq to Afghanistan will need spares, repairs and upgrades. Over five years, such work may add about $1 billion in new sales, he said. That would lift annual service revenue to $450 million, from the $250 million the company had previously projected for such support work.

Force Protection rose 17 cents, or 3.6 percent, to $4.85 at 4 p.m. in Nasdaq Stock Market composite trading.
