(Alliance News) - Image Scan Holdings PLC on Thursday announced it has been awarded a contract to supply three portable x-ray scanning systems to the Royal Air Force.
The Leicestershire, England-based X-ray imaging systems provider said this is its first RAF contract, which will involve supplying the ThreatScan-LSC, a combination package including a large format ThreatScan-LS1 panel, a compact ThreatScan-LS3 panel with back-pack, a tablet PC imaging station and the I-Gen generator.
This combination system provides "great" deployment flexibility for different threat scenarios, Image Scan said.
"I am delighted by this contract award. It provides a key reference with the UK government that should both help us to achieve further UK sales and support our international marketing campaigns. The ThreatScan-LSC 'Combi' system is our highest value portable x-ray package, and we look forward to further sales of this configuration," said Chief Executive Bill Mawer.
Shares in Image Scan were up 16% at 2.95 pence in London on Thursday.
