Business Description
Optex Systems, Inc. manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies, primarily
for Department of Defense applications. Its products are installed on various
types of U.S. military land vehicles, such as the Abrams and Bradley fighting
vehicles, light armored and armored security vehicles and have been selected
for installation on the Stryker family of vehicles. Optex Systems, Inc. also
manufactures and delivers numerous periscope configurations, rifle and surveillance
sights and night vision optical assemblies. Optex Systems, Inc. products consist
primarily of build-to-customer print products that are delivered both directly
to the armed services and to other defense prime contractors. Less than 1% of
today’s revenue is related to the resale of products substantially manufactured
by others. In this case, the product would likely be a simple replacement part
of a larger system previously produced by Optex Systems, Inc.
Our products are installed on various types of U.S. military land vehicles,
such as the Abrams and Bradley, and Stryker families of fighting vehicles, as
well as light armored and armored security vehicles. We also manufacture and
deliver numerous periscope configurations, rifle and surveillance sights and
night vision optical assemblies. We deliver our products both directly to the
federal government and to prime contractors.
We deliver high volume products, under multi-year contracts, to large defense
contractors and government customers. Increased emphasis in the past two years
has been on new opportunities to promote and deliver our products in foreign
military sales, where U.S.-manufactured, combat and wheeled vehicles, are supplied
(and upgraded) in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Defense. We have a
reputation for quality and credibility with our customers as a strategic supplier.
We also anticipate the opportunity to integrate some of our night vision and
optical sights products into commercial applications.
