Our deep knowledge of science and engineering is unmatched in the industry and leads to unique solutions for our customers. Applied Signal Technology systems and personnel are significant contributors to our national security.

We use a centralized manufacturing facility to ensure robust and reliable products. Manufacturing design services such as quality assurance (QA), configuration management (CM), and mechanical engineering are involved in product development from the start to ensure cost-effective and reliable manufacturing. We also design, develop, and manufacture to strict military specifications when required. We can often deliver equipment on very short schedules because we build equipment to inventory. This strategy enables rapid mission deployment for crisis situations.

National security is at the core of AST's mission. For more than a quarter of a century, this focus has driven our work in developing sophisticated reconnaissance systems and remote sensing technologies that help resolve our customers' most difficult national security issues, both at home and abroad.
