IN BRIEF: Filtronic wins PS11 million deal with European defence firm

Filtronic PLC - Sedgefield, England-based maker of advanced micro electronics - Says a ‘major European defence prime’ contractor, which it doesn’t name, has authorised Filtronic to begin work on the next phase of a long-running electronic sensor programme. The initial ’authorisation to proceed’ is worth around £7 million ahead of full purchase-order conversion expected in the first quarter of 2026, with the total contract valued about £11 million over two years. Production will take place at Filtronic’s new secure microelectronics facility in Sedgefield.

Chief Executive Officer Nat Edington says: ‘This latest win deepens our engagement with a key European defence customer and strengthens Filtronic’s position in the defence sector, a growing market for the group. As we invest in capability and capacity, Filtronic is increasingly well positioned to support long-term demand for advanced RF solutions in the defence market.’
