Rebuilt power tube specialist, Econco, has received a $7,7m US Navy contract to provide rebuilt power tubes for the AEGIS weapon system. State-of-the-art navy AEGIS ships employ power tubes to pulse powerful radar in the first fully integrated radar and missile defence system developed.
In addition, the US Navy recently presented Econco a second Award for Excellence for support to the AEGIS weapon system. Econco was first honoured for producing rebuilt tubes with 30% longer life than production tubes. The most recent award recognises the high quality engineering support as was dedicated to both the customer and the product.
