dB CONTROL SECURES RECORD-BREAKING $21.3 MILLION CONTRACT FOR AIRBORNE AMPLIFIERS
Milestone order brings total high-power amplifier and power supply orders to $66.7 million
Fremont, Calif – July 8, 2026 – dB Control, a supplier of mission-critical, often sole-source products worldwide to military organizations, major defense contractors, and commercial manufacturers, announced it has received the largest single purchase order in company history — a $21.3 million contract from a major U.S. prime defense contractor. The order calls for the design and production of airborne amplifiers destined for both manned and unmanned aircraft platforms serving the U.S. military and allied foreign militaries worldwide.
This contract represents the latest in a series of milestones for dB Control. The company’s cumulative orders for high-power amplifiers and power supplies represent a record backlog, reflecting growing customer confidence in dB Control’s engineering capabilities and product reliability.
“This is the biggest order in our company’s history, and we continue to surpass our own milestones,” said Mike Lee, VP of Sales and Marketing. “Each achievement like this is a direct result of the dedication and excellence of our entire team. Their hard work is what builds the trust and confidence our customers place in our solutions.”
In addition to its defense electronics portfolio, dB Control also reports a record backlog in combined orders across its Charter Engineering Inc, TTT, and Paciwave product lines — subsidiaries that design and manufacture RF and Microwave components for defense and commercial applications — reflecting continued strong order growth across the broader dB Control family of companies.
