Not a clue, this is all the info I've got. I could probably find out if it makes a difference.

Bah, it's military gear––all you need to know about is the business end of a hammer.

Not General Atomics or Battlespace, it's a new company trying to get their feet into the business. They are bidding on a new contract.
The company is called AVTECH Research Corporation based out of Henderson.

That's specific to the Army. This is stuff that requires higher than a 50 IQ to operate and maintain.

Possibly be prepared to go to Astan. My Son checked into that type of stuff two years ago and was going to have to go back to Iraq so he turned it down.

Must be a lot of IQ waivers out there then.

Doesn't AVTECH have some contracts at Nellis?

I think they do but I cannot get into their web site from over here, too many restrictions on the base server.

Yeah, the internets here suck. Everything fun is blocked. Even government fun...
