Business Editors

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 18, 2003

Aydin Displays, Inc., a division of Video Display Corporation (NASDAQ:VIDE), has been awarded a $500,000 contract by Northrop Grumman Corporation to supply monitors for the IFTE test system. The U.S. Army's Integrated Family of Test Equipment (IFTE), produced by Northrop Grumman Corporation, is a standard automated test system for detecting electronic faults in military weapons. IFTE can be used across all maintenance levels from the front line to the depot.

As a highly mobile, fast, multifunctional tester, IFTE reduces downtime, unnecessary component replacements and excess spares inventory by improving the speed and quality of diagnosis and repair. It provides analog, digital, and radio frequency/microwave, electro-optics and hybrid test capability over a broad frequency spectrum.

IFTE products include:

-- The Base Shop Test Facility (BSTF), a mobile shop for field

repair of line replacement units at direct support or general

support of maintenance. The BSTF is contained in a S280

shelter mounted on a five-ton truck.

-- The Commercial Equivalent Equipment (CEE) units, identical in

capability to the BVSTF but offering an economic alternative

for benign environments, such as weapons system contractor's

factories and military depots.

-- The Army Test Program Set Environment (ASTE) system, a

software toll set hosted on a commercial workstation. ASTE

supports the development and maintenance of test program sets

for both BSTF and CEE testers.

In addition to U.S. Army contracts, IFTE units have been purchased by the NATO Maintenance and Supply Agency for Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) depot in Luxembourg, including most recently as free-standing base shop test station with maintenance, training, and spares.

Video Display Corporation designs, develops and manufactures unique solutions for display requirements for military, medical and industrial use with emphasis on high end training and simulation applications. Its product offerings include ruggedized CRT and AMLCD displays as well as complete projection systems utilizing VDC's Marquee(TM) line of projectors.
