PRESS RELEASE -- Fairfax, VA, December 12, 2018 - Azure Summit Technology, provider of high-performance RF electronics hardware, firmware, and software products for the Department of Defense, announced today that it has received third and fourth delivery orders on its five-year, $48.5 million indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with the US Navy to support the AN/ZLQ-1 V2 Common Chassis for the Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft (MPRA), Persistent Maritime Unmanned Aircraft Systems (PMUAS), and Submarine Sensor Systems Programs.
Through these new delivery orders, totaling more than $10 million, the Navy is procuring additional four, five, and eight-channel radio frequency (RF) transceivers and 16x12 fully non-blocking RF Switch Matrices for systems deployed on submarines, manned aircraft, and unmanned air vehicles (UAVs). With these delivery orders, the Navy has ordered more than $20 million in Azure Summit's intelligent Switchblade transceiver line of products using the IDIQ contract.
"Azure’s Switchblade transceivers are core elements of mission systems that are being integrated today onto multiple Navy platforms. They are multi-channel software defined radios that provide the Warfighter with next generation RF capabilities that support current missions and have the flexibility to provide new RF capabilities and functions for emerging missions in the future," stated Azure Summit Technology CEO, Dr. Thomas Green, Jr.
Azure Summit Technology is a mature, growing small business with locations in Fairfax, Virginia, and Melbourne, Florida, that develops and delivers high-performance RF hardware, firmware, and software products, and innovative, practical, multi-function RF systems solutions that address emerging missions of national importance for customers across the Department of Defense.

PRESS RELEASE -- Fairfax, VA, November 2, 2018 -- Azure Summit Technology, provider of high-performance RF electronics hardware, firmware, and software products for the Department of Defense, announced today that it has successfully demonstrated a 4-channel 3U open VPX software-definable RF receiver to the US Navy. Azure is in the process of finalizing the manufacturing and design of the receiver and will be ready for full rate production in 2QFY19.
Azure's 3U Switchblade receiver provides modular, open-architecture multi-channel RF performance with low cost and SWAP. It includes fully integrated RF, digital, and on-board computing resources in a form factor well-suited to small manned and unmanned air, surface, and subsurface platforms. The 3U Switchblade is fully compatible with all tuner modules and software/firmware applications that are available and in use with Azure's production Switchblade 6U transceivers, including both the 80 MHz and 500 MHz Instantaneous Bandwidth (IBW) tuners. It is also compatible with the Switchblade Wideband Transmitter Module, currently under development, that will enable the 3U to operate as a wideband transceiver.
"With the addition of the 3U form factor to the Switchblade product family, the Navy can deliver the same advanced RF mission capabilities to the warfighter across larger platforms, hosting the 6U, and smaller platforms, hosting the 3U, achieving substantial software/firmware reuse, simplified logistics, and lower development and lifecycle costs," stated Azure Summit Technology CEO, Dr. Thomas Green, Jr.
