Mystic, CT (April 22, 2008). In February, 2008, the Air Force completed live fire testing of the Company's TIICM™ MANPADS countermeasure technology, which is designed to defend aircraft against certain shoulder fired missile threats. A final report is being prepared for the Government and is expected to be delivered by the end of April, 2008.

While the results of the test did not meet certain pre-test success criteria developed in conjunction with our partner, Sanders Design International, the Company is nonetheless encouraged by this round of testing. The test results are consistent with simulations, which also predict that significant improvements in the overall system performance will result if and when certain modifications to the underlying infrared source technology are developed. If those developments are completed, the Company believes that TIICM™ could have significant technological advantage over competing countermeasures. The Company is seeking further Government funding to develop and test an advanced version of the technology, but can provide no assurance as to whether or when it may receive any such funding or complete such developments.
