Arotech Receives Military Battery Order
Arotech Corp.’s battery and power systems
division has received a $650,000 contract for
military batteries, an add-on to the February
2004 $2.17 million order from an Asian country.
The unique rechargeable battery powers man-portable
electro-optic systems used for military and security
applications. The company expects to deliver the
additional batteries yet this year.
The division, which includes Electric Fuel and
Epsilor Electronics, has also received a contract
from a large OEM for the development and delivery
of lithium-ion batteries and associated smart
chargers to power a military ruggedized tactical
computer.
“This first contract in the ruggedized computer
market opens new venues for our battery technology,”
said Robert S. Ehrlich, Arotech chairman and CEO.
