Raytheon UK to supply Mode S MSSR Systems to Romania

Under the contract, signed in Bucharest, Raytheon UK will provide dual-channel, Condor Series 300 systems for the en route radar sites at Romania's Henri Coanda (Otopeni) International Airport, Constanta International Airport and Arad International Airport during a 20-month program. Richard Daniel, Raytheon U.K. director, Defence and Program Leadership, said: "This is a significant win for Raytheon since ROMATSA is a new customer for us. We look forward to establishing an enduring relationship with ROMATSA as we roll out these systems and extend our services further in Eastern Europe." The first system, for Otopeni, completed Factory Acceptance Test in May and is scheduled for hand over to ROMATSA by November 2011.
