$2.6 Million Contract for MESA (Multi-role Electronically Scanned Array) Advanced Military Radar System
LaBarge, Inc. has been awarded a $2.6 million contract from Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) to continue to provide electronic subsystems for the MESA (Multi-role Electronically Scanned Array) radar system. The MESA radar is an advanced airborne surveillance radar system used in military aircraft with airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) platforms. Currently flying in the next-generation 737-700 series aircraft produced by The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA), the radar is mounted atop the fuselage and has a long detection range with a 360-degree electronic scan that can simultaneously track air and sea targets, covering the entire operational area with an integrated identification friend or foe (IFF) mode. The MESA radar allows the AEW&C aircraft to operate farther back from the battle lines while it detects and tracks targets in high threat areas.
