By GlobalDataThe IMAs were made using the firm’s intellectual property for mixers, filters, and custom monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs).
In October, the company was contracted by the US Army to develop a next-generation explosive detection system.
Working with the army, a team from Cobham will develop technology for detecting landmines and other explosive hazards.
The three-year deal will also involve Cobham in the development of a highly specialised handheld technology demonstrator.
