Sypris Wins Another Electronic Warfare Program

ELECTRONIC MODULES FOR PRECISION-GUIDED ANTI-SHIP MISSILE SYSTEM

 

FOLLOW-ON AWARD WITH INCREASED VOLUMES


TAMPA, Fla.-- Sypris Electronics, LLC, a subsidiary of Sypris Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq/GM: SYPR), announced today that it has recently received a follow-on award from a U.S. DOD prime contractor to manufacture and test electronic power supply modules for a mission-critical, long-range, precision-guided anti-ship missile system. The contract calls for an increase in production volume from existing levels beginning in 2022. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

The program is designed to meet the needs of U.S. Navy and Air Force warfighters. The missile system employs sophisticated precision routing and guidance capabilities.

Kane, Vice President & General Manager of Sypris Electronics. “Our customer is a worldwide leader in the development and delivery of advanced technologies for the commercial and military electronics markets.
