Frequency Electronics, a global supplier of precision time and frequency products, has been awarded a $19 Million contract from a major U.S. aerospace prime contractor to supply on-board precision frequency-generation systems for a multi-satellite program.
Under this contract, Frequency Electronics will develop, manufacture, test, and deliver state-of-the-art frequency generators and microwave synthesizers within 24 months. The systems will provide multiple microwave frequencies for the spacecraft platforms within which they are deployed, and enhance their mission effectiveness. This high-performance hardware is derived from similar models that Frequency Electronics has provided in the past for U.S. Government satellites, and which are successfully operating in orbit.
Tom McClelland, Frequency Electronics CEO, commented, “This program award demonstrates the importance of FEI’s continuous role in supporting U.S. Government secure communication systems, and also shows that FEI’s investments in these key technologies continue to keep FEI an essential participant in critical U.S. Government programs.”
