The order covers Very High Frequency (VHF) and High Frequency (HF) radio equipment in manpack, vehicle and base station configurations for the Bangladesh Army.

Greg O’Neill, managing director of Barrett Communications, said: 'The long standing and successful relationship we have with the Bangladesh MoD must be credited to the strong relationship we have with...
