API Nanotronics Awarded Contracts Exceeding $1.4 Million

TORONTO, CANADA | Posted on January 17th, 2007

Under the agreements, API will supply a number of products including light detectors used on the U.S. Army AN/ALQ 144 countermeasure control system, which protects aircraft from air-to-air and ground-to-air heat seeking (infrared) missiles. Additional products include radar signal indicators used on the IP1150A/APR-39 (V) program, which provide aircraft with warning of radar directed air defense threat systems, and post-amplifier control drivers used on the U.S. Army's Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) system.

The new contracts come on the heels of the Company's largest ever order by the DoD announced last June valued at over U.S. $9 million. API feels this news is reflective of the growing relationship between the Company, the DoD and its affiliates. As the demand for semiconductors and other mission-critical components grow, Management believes the Company will command an increasingly significant role as the preferred supplier of custom parts for critical, fixed-design systems. API has grown into a dynamic military electronics company through strategic acquisition of talent, capacity and technologies for delivering specialized hardware to its mounting list of customers. To continue its impressive growth and in anticipation of industry trends, the Company is embarking on new initiatives to offer customers next generation nanotechnology derived products developed at state of the art facilities under the oversight of top scientists and engineers.
