ST. LOUIS, Oct. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Engineered Support
Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:EASI) wholly-owned subsidiary Systems &
Electronics Inc. (SEI) recently received purchase orders valued at
approximately $6.9 million for 31 Manportable Surveillance and
Target Acquisition Radar (MSTAR) systems from Northrop Grumman
Mission Systems sector, Carson, CA. The radar systems will be used
in a variety of surveillance and security applications for multiple
Northrop Grumman customers. In addition to fulfilling existing
orders, some units will be maintained as a base stock to
effectively deliver against small orders on a timely basis or to
use for demonstration purposes. "We're pleased to support Northrop
Grumman as the company responds to its customers' needs for
advanced asset protection solutions," said Engineered Support Vice
Chairman and CEO, Gerald A. Potthoff. "The MSTAR continues to be
viewed as a critical element within the security and surveillance
systems used for high-value asset protection. More than 900 MSTAR
radars are in service throughout the world," he said. MSTAR is
low-power ground surveillance radar that provides wide-area
coverage in all weather conditions, night or day, to a maximum
range of 25 miles. The system locates moving targets and uniquely
classifies them as personnel, tracked or wheeled vehicles. MSTAR is
ideally suited for a deployable perimeter security application or
as part of an integrated security system for force protection,
border surveillance and asset protection. MSTAR can also meet
various Homeland Security missions where intrusion detection,
border surveillance and perimeter security are needed to protect
power generation facilities, airports, testing ranges, dams and
other critical infrastructure assets. MSTAR is deployed in both
fixed site strategic and transportable tactical applications.
