LaBarge Awarded Atlas 5 Wire Harness Contract
St. Louis - Nov 11, 2003 LaBarge, Inc. said Monday that Lockheed Martin has awarded it a $6.6 million contract to produce complex wire harnesses for the Atlas V launch vehicle. The Company anticipates options for additional work. For more than a decade, LaBarge has made wire harnesses for the Atlas family of launch vehicles, which take into orbit satellites for both government and commercial customers. The Atlas V is Lockheed Martin's newest, most advanced launch vehicle. Under the terms of the contract, LaBarge will produce wire harnesses that transport electronic signals between all the launch vehicle's systems, from the vehicle computer to its payload portion, as well as ground control cables that send communication signals between the rocket and mission control. Production, which will take place in Berryville, Ark., is expected to begin in January 2004 and continue through the end of 2006.
