TMD has acquired G2 Engineering Limited, a small, specialist hi-tech microwave design and manufacturing company currently based in nearby Greenford, West London. Established some 18 years ago, G2 Engineering is engaged in the design and manufacture of a range of radar transponders and support equipment for applications that include UAVs, missiles, and manned aircraft. Well known customers of G2 Engineering include MBDA and QinetiQ.

It’s my pleasure to have the opportunity to give you brief news on some of the current TMD activities.
The US office in Baltimore, Maryland has had a record year, winning a total of three new programmes in addition to orders received from our established customers. The US team has been further strengthened and the repair facility has seen good growth with rapid turnaround time.
We are heavily involved in the UK National Quantum Programme with a number of projects running to develop quantum enhanced products with a wide range of applications. The areas being addressed are: compact and rugged rubidium and caesium atomic clocks, compact frequency stabilized lasers and compact magneto optical traps. TMD is working with a number of academic and industrial partners on these projects which are described on page 7.
Red Air (aggressor) simulation is becoming increasingly important globally and TMD is supplying a number of customers with threat simulators for training systems. These are both ground based and airborne to allow a wide range of threats to be realistically simulated.
Finally, as power and frequency demands for EW platforms continue trending upwards, it’s clear that travelling wave tube (TWT) solutions, rather than solid state, offer proven technology advantages. When high power is the goal for radar and Electronic Warfare, TWT based solutions have repeatedly shown to be more efficient, durable, and cost effective over the life of the programme. With decades of tube technology experience behind us, and working at the forefront of tube innovation, TMD is well positioned to reinforce the suitability of tube based solutions at high power.
We are anticipating another year of growth and very much look forward to continuing the strong relationships we have with our valued customers.
West London based electronics company TMD Technologies has been operating a charity of the year scheme since 2014, with a new charity being nominated by the workforce every year. On average we have made around £5,000 each year for the chosen charity, via a variety of events and challenges organized by staff.
World leader, West London based, TMD Technologies Limited (TMD) – specialising in professional products for applications in the defence microwave and RF field – will be showing a range of microwave power modules (MPMs) plus intelligent instrumentation amplifiers at Eurosatory 2018 in Paris.
TMD Technologies Limited (TMD), world class, London based manufacturer of professional microwave and RF products, will be showing a representative selection from its advanced TWT based and solid state MPM (Microwave Power Module) range on Stand B2 at EW Europe 2018.
