"CDogg" - Thanks ! That Lockheed contract's great news for MTRN shareholders and speaks to the deep respect MTRN engenders in the U.S. defense industry. One VERY positive aspect is MTRN's investment in advanced CASTING ability.

It's "possible" that LQMT will negotiate with MTRN to become an additional contract manufacturer (should LQMT "win" any bids). After all, MTRN already mass produces the quality-controlled LM rods & ingots.

Another point is the possible final product "canard" missile component contract w/ Lockheed that VISSER is eyeing. MTRN is now a 1st tier, proven competitor for the potential contract.

According to Lawrence Ryczek, Vice President and General Manager, Brush Beryllium & Composites, “We have made a significant investment in advancing our casting technology, and this contract adds to our growing number of sales orders in the defense and semiconductor markets.”
