FLIR is another name in the electronics thermal imaging systems and infrared camera systems worldwide. Just reported blow-out numbers and raised guidance for the year.
By the way, San Francisco International Airport has asked the TSA and Congress to be the first "pilot-program" for AIR CARGO that goes in the belly of commercial airliners to be screened. Yes, believe it or not . . . Four years after 911 we still do not screen AIR CARGO on commercial airliners. Hello, Bush Administration??? How pathetic. LLL should benefit from this program.
I agree totally. It would be SO EASY for a terrorist to find flight paths for cargo planes, ship a significant bomb with a radio controlled detonator that can receive signals from a few miles out, set up in a big city that the plane flies over, watch the skies and when you see it in a good spot, press the button, the plane blows up scattering flaming wreckage over a major metropolitan area. The things that have worked best in our favor so far is: 1. Terrorists are stupid 2. They think small (with the exception of 9/11) 3. They have their own soldiers kill themselves, so they don't need to think creatively. Sorry, just a rant. Cash
I like IMX They have a handheld explosives detector that sniffs the air instead of using the wipes. Very handy unit that is said to be better than a dogs nose using some fancy technology. Navy is testing it but have not seen a contract for a bunch of units. Once a few sell I think it may snowball. Stock looks to be taking off but its way down from its high. A little skeptical of the CEO but if they get some big orders it may not matter short term. http://www.implantsciences.com/products/exp/products.html Disclosure: I'm long the stock
You should apply for a job in Homeland Security. Not even Tom Ridge could have imagined such a scenario.
Which firms are in line for the closed circuit tv monitoring systems if the subways get equipment like the London tubes?
