Orbit International Receives $800,000 Follow-on Order from U.S. Army Communications Electronics Command.

Total Award Could Exceed $5 Million

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y. -- Orbit International Corp. (NASDAQ:ORBT), an electronics manufacturer and supplier, today announced that its Electronics Group has received additional orders valued at approximately $800,000, released against a second fixed price indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) multi-year contract from the U.S. Army Communications Electronics Command (CECOM), Fort Monmouth, NJ. This follow-on order, for the manufacture and delivery of Radar Display Units (RDUs), supports ongoing U.S. Army and Marine Corps Firefinder Program requirements for current military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Deliveries under this latest release have been accelerated, and are now expected to commence in the second quarter of 2007, and continue through the third quarter of 2007.

This latest IDIQ award provides CECOM as well as any governmental procurement agency with the ability to procure U.S. Army TPQ 36/37 and U.S. Marine Corps TPS-59 systems on an as required basis for accelerated delivery requirements. The intent of the IDIQ contract was set in place to handle approximately 100 units annually, for a period of five years. This contract award follows an order for 65 RDUs that was received in November 2006 and shipped on an accelerated basis. This latest order reflects the need for additional U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps hardware that will be shipped directly overseas for immediate battlefield support.

The Orbit Electronics Group RDU design provides artillery battalions with small, lightweight, highly mobile radar sets capable of detecting weapon projectiles launched at any angle over 360 degrees of coverage. Upon projectile detection, the weapon location is computed and is used to direct counter fire with precise accuracy.

Dennis Sunshine, President and CEO of Orbit International, commented, "Since the contract for these RDUs has already exceeded anticipated government requirements, all on an expedited delivery schedule, it appears that the TPQ 36/37 and TPS-59 systems have been extremely effective in providing our troops with accurate positioning information that locates and eliminates hostile mortars within any short-to-medium range enemy positions."

Mr. Sunshine added, "This second multi-year agreement provides both branches of the military with firm fixed prices for critical RDU requirements through August 2008. We expect that our customer will exercise the total quantities under the current contract which could generate over $5 million in revenue to Orbit over the life of the agreement. Based upon input from our customer, we expect additional RDU requirements beyond August 2008. Furthermore, we now have a separate contract in place with CECOM under which we are repairing RDUs that have been shipped back from battlefield usage, having operated under severe temperature and environmental battlefield conditions. Since we have ongoing RDU production orders in-house, we simply replace all of the critical parts to provide our military with refurbished units that will continue to operate as state-of-the-art hardware for battlefield support."
