Delivery Order Details
The defense technology company said Wednesday the delivery order falls under the RF & Circuit Design Assembly & Fabrication contract. The support services QinetiQ will provide NSWCDD include design, fabrication, rapid prototyping, special acquisition and technology integration.
The company will work on circuit board design, mechanical fabrication, RF distribution assemblies and fabric assemblies to support Naval Sea Systems Command’s electro-mechanical and RF systems.
Under the order, QinetiQ US will produce and deliver various products for design validation, such as internal and external wiring harnesses and cables, computer and power system enclosures, hardware and electrical kitting and custom circuit cards.
