Luxell's Aktelux captures key Malaysian Hawk aircraft upgrade program

TORONTO, July 6 /CNW/ - Aktelux Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Luxell
Technologies Inc. (TSE:LUX), announced today that it has been selected by
IGTEC SDN BHD of Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia, to provide a major technology
upgrade for the Engine Monitoring Panels (EMP) used on the Malaysian Air Force
(RMAF) Hawk combat aircraft. The RMAF operates a total of 29 BAE SYSTEMS
manufactured Hawks, which include both Mk. 108 and 208 versions. The program
involves the replacement of obsolescent, discrete EMP instrumentation with
Aktelux's integrated active-matrix LCD display system solution, which may be
readily tailored to accommodate non-standard installations, representative of
the Hawk crew-station. While being fully compatible with the aircraft's legacy
systems, the new EMP offers substantial future growth options and
significantly reduced life cycle costs. The scope of the contract award
includes engineering development and the delivery of 29 sets of display and
electronic units as well as two ruggedized tablet computers, with delivery
targeted for Aktelux's fiscal year 2006.
Said Louis Joubert, Aktelux's newly appointed President, "We have worked
very closely with both IGTEC and the RMAF, and are delighted to be given this
significant opportunity to demonstrate how the injection of new technologies
into legacy systems can dramatically reduce cost of ownership while enhancing
performance. The Hawk is an excellent platform for this purpose, where our
proprietary design and manufacturing skills will allow us to deliver an
optimal solution for a custom application that falls beyond the capabilities
of the "off the shelf", or standard form-factor suppliers. We look forward to
business growth in this area."
