ARLINGTON, VA – The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency provided Northrop Grumman's Electronic Systems a $1.7 million contract to develop an ultra high capacity hybrid thermal ground plane to fight semiconductor-generated heat employed in electronic systems.
The 18-month contract follows a $1.5 million contract awarded earlier this year to the University of Colorado, Boulder and Lockheed Martin to work on comparable technology.
Together, both contracts eventually could be worth about $10 million, says the agency, provided all phases are completed.
These agreements come on the heels of a recent Navy report predicting shipboard cooling requirements would double every six years for the next 20 years.
COLORADO SPRINGS, CO – Photo Stencil’s chief executive officer, Keith Favre, has resigned, the firm reported.
ST. LOUIS – LaBarge Inc. has received a $3.2 million contract from Bell Helicopter, a Textron Inc. company, to continue to produce electronic assemblies for the H-1 Upgrade Program for helicopters used by the U.S. Marine Corps.
This program currently calls for 280 upgraded utility or attack aircraft: 100 UH-1Ys and 180 AH-1Zs.
LaBarge expects to produce the box-level electronic assemblies at its Huntsville, AK, facility beginning in January, continuing through July 2010.
The company has supported the H-1 Upgrade Program since 2004.
