CSPI Development Systems Selected by Lockheed Martin/Indra Sistemas S.A. for Mk92 Program

BILLERICA, Massachusetts, February 11, 2002- CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI) MultiComputer Division, a leading supplier of high-performance cluster computing systems, announced that Lockheed Martin Naval Electronics & Surveillance Systems - Surface Systems in Moorestown, NJ and Indra Sistemas S.A. in Madrid, Spain, the premier Spanish defense company, have selected the CSPI 2000 SERIES products as the DSP component of a COTS technology upgrade initiative for the Mk92 Fire Control System

The Mk92 is a lightweight, compact family of fire control systems that provides AAW, ASuW and shore bombardment capabilities for naval surface combatants. The system combines integrated radar detection, command and control functions and multiple-channel engagement capability for fast reaction missile and gun operations. The modular design of the system makes it suitable for a variety of ship classes. Variants have been installed on more than seventy Oliver Hazard Perry class (FFG-7) frigates worldwide and the system is presently in use on the Santa Maria class frigates in the Spanish Navy as well as eight other international navies. It is also employed on U.S. Coast Guard cutters as well as international corvette/fast attack missile craft.

Lockheed Martin has been under contract with the U.S. Navy since the mid-1970s as the design agent for the Mk92 Gun and Missile Fire Control System. Over the life of the MK92 program, Lockheed Martin has continually developed improvements and upgrades for the fire control system. Teaming with Indra, Lockheed Martin will design and develop a state of the art Reconfigurable Generic Search DSP (RGSD) that will be used to perform surveillance and detection functions for the radar system

"We embrace the opportunity to provide products and support to the Lockheed Martin/Indra development and integration teams. We, like they, are committed to technology modernization efforts under the COTS initiative," stated William Bent, Jr., General Manager and Vice President of CSPI MultiComputer Division.
