Filtronic plc (AIM: FTC), the designer and manufacturer of advanced RF
solutions for the space, aerospace and defence, and telecoms infrastructure
markets, has secured a new contract from an existing customer. This order
extends the Company's engagement into an additional business unit of a major

future.

 

The contract is for the design, development and delivery of a new

opened secure, automated microelectronics facility in Sedgefield, which is
purpose-built to enable efficient, high-volume manufacture of complex RF
modules for mission-critical, next-generation defence applications.

 

Nat Edington, Chief Executive Officer, said: "This latest award from an
existing major European defence customer demonstrates continued confidence in
our technology and ability to deliver high-quality programmes. The Company is
increasingly well positioned to address long-term demand for complex,
high-performance wideband solutions, reinforcing Filtronic's strategic
position in the expanding defence sector."
