$1.3 million contract awarded for fuel-cell driven, tablet PC

General Dynamics C4 Systems has won a U.S. Air Force contract to develop 10 prototype tablet computers powered by direct liquid fuel cells that could be used by special operations forces to set up portable air traffic control computers.

The General Dynamics unit (Scottsdale, Ariz.) is functioning as a systems integrator in the contract to meld different features into prototype systems. "This could have long-term commercial opportunities," said Chris Marzilli, a senior vice president and deputy general manager. The $1.3 million contract was announced Monday (Aug. 23).

The U. S. military has been placing greater emphasis on using technologies and products that are commercially available and then integrating and developing them for military usage, Marzilli said. The systems developed for the military may then travel full circle and become commercial-available systems.
