MELVILLE, N.Y. –
March 20, 2018– Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (Nasdaq: CMTL)
announced today that during its third quarter of fiscal 2018, its
Orlando, Florida-based subsidiary, Comtech Systems, Inc., which is part
of Comtech’s Government Solutions segment, has received an order
totaling approximately $2.0 million to provide 50 Mb/s tactical
troposcatter equipment to a leading supplier to the UAE Armed Forces.
The Modular Transportable Transmission System (MTTS) troposcatter
terminals purchased will be delivered to the UAE Armed Forces as a proof
of concept vehicle to determine how the MTTS fits into their existing
military communications scenario. Comtech’s advanced 50 MB tropo modem
was chosen because of its excellent field record with both international
customers and the U.S. Military, as well as the unmatched performance of
the Comtech CS67500 modem.
Fred Kornberg, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comtech
Telecommunications Corp. commented, “This project shows the growing role
of deployable troposcatter systems around the world, and their power to
enable low-latency, high throughput data links across areas that are
otherwise inaccessible due to geography or other factors. As the only
modern field-proven deployable troposcatter system, Comtech’s MTTS is a
natural choice for the UAE Armed Forces.”
