Tekla employees Gary Shaw and Charlie Meyer have been instrumental in the development and operational deployment of the Joint Asymmetric Warfare Systems (JAWS) work operating from NAWC-WD, China Lake, CA. The JAWS teams provide three services that directly help prepare the warfighter before deployment.
