Dynetics: Fort Walton Beach

The Fort Walton Beach office was founded in 1980 with its initial basis of operation concentrated solely in systems analysis and engineering support to the AMRAAM Program. During an 18-year period, the office supported the program during the initial validation phase under the AFRL's purview and throughout all later phases to include FSD, RDT&E, Production and P3I phases under the direction of the AMRAAM JSPO. In 1992, Dynetics was awarded a five-year Electronic Combat (EC) Test Improvement Contract to provide upgrades and modernization of EC test facilities. In 1994, Dynetics was nominated by our Eglin customer and later selected as the SBA's Small Business Prime Contractor of the Year.

Today, as the Technology Evaluation and Transition Department, the Fort Walton Beach office is focused on conducting and transitioning government-funded research and development tools into the acquisition and test/training markets to include specialized hardware, software, and studies/analyses. Under the current CIMTIC II contract, Dynetics supports the 46TW at Eglin Air Force Base in development and modernization of test facilities and infrastructure required for test and training and evaluation of C4I and munitions systems. In addition, the department has extensive capabilities in the areas of multi-sensor signature generation and projection, IR and RF scene projectors and generators, modeling and simulation, active and passive polarimetry, tactical Air Force sensor technology, and special operations surveillance equipment. These capabilities have been applied in satisfying the requirements of a number of customers including the Air Force Research Laboratory, Air Armament Center, Navy Coastal Systems Station, MSIC, OSD, DARPA, NASA, RTTC, and commercial entities.
