$7.3-M order proceeds
After a year-long wait Allen-Vanguard Corp. gets the nod to begin filling a $7.3-million add-on order from Lockheed Martin for Symphony bomb jammer components, spares and accessories. The deal, announced last August, is for parts for the electronic counter-measure component systems and a tie-in to an existing contract for up to 1,000 Symphony jammers. “We are very pleased to see orders for Symphony jammers resuming after a long interval due to delays in the procurement process under the U.S. Foreign Military Sales (FMS) system," said Allen-Vanguard CEO David Luxton. "FMS sales entail lengthy export approval times but several orders from various countries have been working their way through the process for some time. The order announced today is the first to complete the process.” The order expected to be delivered before the end of Allen-Vanguard’s fiscal year.
