Orbit International’s Electronics Group Receives Orders for Its Remote Control Units Totaling in Excess of $1,200,000

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., March 02, 2017 -- Orbit International Corp. (OTC PINK:ORBT), an electronics manufacturer and software solution provider, today announced that it received two awards for its Remote Control Units (RCU) totaling in excess of $1,200,000.  The RCUs will be used on two distinct IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) programs. Deliveries are expected to take place in the third quarter of 2017.

Mitchell Binder, President and CEO of Orbit International commented, “Our Electronics Group had very firm bookings throughout 2016, which well positioned our delivery schedules in the second half of 2016 and into the first half of 2017.  With these recent awards, delivery schedules are beginning to firm up for our Electronics Group for the third quarter of 2017.” 

Binder added, “Our Electronics Group is working on additional new opportunities, one of which is a next generation developmental effort for a product in which the Company has a significant amount of fielded units.  This new order opportunity has retrofit possibilities – which could significantly increase the business potential of this opportunity. The Company is also working with another customer on a significant follow-on order for an existing program. The Company expects to receive both orders by quarter end. However, timing is always an uncertainty with regard to the receipt of government contracts.”
