Herley Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:HRLY) announced today that its Herley Lancaster division has received a follow-on contract valued at more than $1 million from a major U.S. prime contractor to manufacture multi-function integrated microwave assemblies (IMAs) for a U.S. Navy electronic attack aircraft.

Richard F. Poirier, CEO and President, commented, "This award to Herley Lancaster is for the production of frequency up converters for delivery over the next year. Herley specializes in complex microwave assemblies such as these at Herley Lancaster, and at several of our other domestic business locations and in Israel.

We have supported this customer and program for many years, and we expect to continue to do so for years to come."
