Adelos (part of the S&K Technologies, Inc. family of companies) awarded Rapid Innovation Fund contract with USAF

Adelos Inc. was recently awarded a Rapid Innovation Fund (RIF) contract from the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center. Valued at just under $2.5 million, the funding will facilitate the transitioning of technology utilized in the Adelos Strategic Area Intrusion Detection System (ASAIDS) for use by the Air Force. The system provides situational awareness and early warning/intrusion detection capabilities and may be deployed at Intercontinental Ballistic Missile launch facilities.

"Our Adelos technology is the third iteration of the product, with predecessors being installed and tested at Idaho National Laboratory and the U.S. Navy in Keyport, Washington," said Scott Colton, Adelos, Inc. CEO. "We’re also happy to have the unit manufactured locally by another small business, S&K Electronics, Inc. http://www.skecorp.com/ , one of our original partners on the project."
