Scientific-Atlanta Gets $8.5-Million Contract For

Shipboard Platform Work

Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. of Atlan- ta, Ga., has received an $8.5-million contract from Spar Aerospace Lim- ited of Toronto for the design and development of a three-axis, sta- blized shipboard platform to sup- port infra-red sensing equipment.

The platforms are part of a Spar contract to supply the full-scale en- gineering development models of a

Naval infra-red search and target designation system (IRSTD). This system is used to passively detect and track infra-red signals gener- ated by aircraft and missiles, and for the observation of surface features such as ships, coastlines, and ice- bergs. IRSTD complements modern shipboard active radar surveillance systems.

This initial $8.5-million contract with Spar carries with it the poten- tial for future production to meet the requirements of the U.S. and

Canadian navies. Spar is jointly funded by the U.S. Navy and the

Government of Canada under the

Defense Development Sharing

Agreement between the two coun- tries.

New Literature Describes

Neese Protective Clothing —Free Copies Available

New free literature is available on the protective clothing manufac- tured by Neese Industries, Inc. of

Gonzales, La.

All Neese protective garments have 100 percent liquid-proof seams, non-conductive, non-corro- sive, non-sparking snaps and fasten- ers, thoroughly coated fabrics, full elastic suspenders, and custom-tai- lored, generous sizing. The eight- page color brochure from the com- pany gives detailed information on the style, color, and fabric of the various types of clothing available in the vinyl line polyurethane, syn- ethetic rubber, and economy line.

Though most items cataloged in the literature are offered in various colors, the brochure uses "safety yellow" illustrations, "in action" to show the flexibility and freedom of movement the garments provide in extreme weather conditions and in various types of use.

Also included is complete or- dering information, and a special flyer on Neese's commercial fishing suit which the company calls "a foul-weather fishing suit for the tough customer."
