The AIM-listed firm stated the total value of the contract was expected to be £11m, for a two-year programme, with production set take place at its new, automated microelectronics facility in Sedgefield.

Chief executive Nat Edington said: "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."
