Item 2.

                     Management's Discussion and Analysis
               of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

First Three Months of 1999 Compared with First Three Months of 1998

Net sales for the first three months of 1999 were $27.2 million compared with
$23.3 million reported in the same period in 1998.  The increase is
attributable to increased sales in the Defense and Aerospace Systems segment,
partially offset by a decrease in the Satellite Products segment.

Within the Defense and Aerospace Systems segment, sales increases were recorded
in aircraft armament products, command and control systems and sonar systems.
These increases were more than offset by decreased ceramic product sales and
fiber composite sales primarily due to delays in the receipt of orders.
Accordingly, the increase within the segment resulted from the sales of
technical services by TSA acquired in July 1998 and the sales of Specialty
Plastics acquired in December 1998.  Sales in the Satellite Products segment
were $0.2 million lower than the prior year quarter due to the winding down of
certain programs, partially offset by new programs.

Earnings from operations in the first three months of 1999 were $2.2 million
compared with $1.9 million in the same period in 1998.  Operating earnings and
margin in the Defense and Aerospace Systems segment were lower than the prior
year quarter due to a less favorable mix of programs.  The decrease in
operating earnings was offset by a marginal contribution of earnings from the
recent acquisitions where margins were also lower than anticipated due to the
mix of business and initial reorganization expenses.  Operating earnings and
margin in the Satellite Products segment improved compared to the first quarter
of 1998 due to the mix of programs and the resolution of technical issues on
certain programs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first three months of 1999
were $0.6 million higher than the first three months of 1998.  As a percent of
sales, the level of expenses is consistent with the prior year quarter.

Company-sponsored research and development expenditures of $0.7 million were
comparable to the corresponding period in 1998.

Non-operating expense, net, was $0.2 million in the first three months of 1999,
compared with $0.04 million in the corresponding period of 1998.  This increase
was principally due to lower interest income as a result of lower levels of
average invested cash.

The Company provided for Federal income taxes for the first three months of
1999 at an effective rate of 30%, which is currently the expected effective
rate for the full year 1999.  The Company recorded a tax provision in the first
quarter of 1999 as it had previously fully recognized the benefit associated
with its tax net operating loss carryforward.

Financial Condition

The Company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities decreased by
$6.7 million from December 31, 1998 to $26.6 million at March 27, 1999.  This
decrease was primarily due to the $5.5 million payment of the note related to
<PAGE>
                                                                         Page 9

the acquisition of Specialty Plastics, $0.8 million for purchases of capital
equipment and $0.5 million for payment of common and preferred dividends.

The notes receivable of $3.2 million at March 27, 1999, of which $1.1 million
is included in current assets, relate to the sale of the Company's College
Point facility in January 1996.  The notes are due in varying annual amounts
through 2004 and bear interest at 7%.  The payer of the note is currently in
arrears.  The notes are fully secured by the related facility.  The Company is
working to resolve this matter with the payer and believes that the ultimate
resolution of this matter will not have a material effect on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

The Company has outstanding $29.3 million of 7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures Due 2011.  Commencing in 1996 and until retirement of these
debentures, the Company is making annual sinking fund payments of $1.8 million
which are due each December 15th.  As of March 27, 1999, the Company had $0.4
million of these debentures remaining in treasury to be used for these annual
requirements.  The remaining amount due in 1999 of $1.3 million is reflected in
the current portion of long-term debt.

The Company also has an ESOT loan obligation with a balance at March 27, 1999
of $8.6 million at an interest rate of 82% of the prime lending rate.  The
repayment of this obligation is funded through dividends on the Company's
preferred shares and cash contributions.

Capital expenditures in the first three months of 1999 totaled $0.8 million
compared with $1.1 million in the same period in 1998.  The total expenditures
for 1999 are expected to be slightly higher than the total $3.6 million in
1998.

The Company believes that it has adequate liquidity and sufficient capital to
fund its current operating plans.

The backlog of unfilled orders at March 27, 1999 was $164.0 million compared
with $98.8 million a year ago and $151.8 million at December 31, 1998.

New Accounting Standard

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 establishes standards for
the accounting and reporting of derivative instruments and hedging activities.
This Statement, which is effective for all quarters of fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 1999, requires companies to record derivatives on the balance
sheet as assets or liabilities at their fair value.  In certain circumstances,
changes in the value of such derivatives may be required to be recorded as
gains or losses.  The Company believes that the impact of this Statement will
not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Year 2000

The year 2000 issue ("Y2K") affects computer systems having date-sensitive
programs that may not properly recognize the year 2000.  Y2K is reputed to be
able to cause computers and computer controlled equipment to cease functioning.
The Company has been addressing the Y2K issue for some time and established a
formal Y2K Program in 1998.

The Company has conducted several informal and formal Y2K reviews over the last
two years of its products and internal systems.  Based on these reviews, the
only area where the Company has noted that Y2K could materially affect the
Company's operations or products is that failures or miscalculations could be
caused in the computerized accounting programs provided by outside vendors and
used at the Company.  The applicable vendors have provided
<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 10

modifications to their programs to deal with Y2K and these modifications are
currently being tested.  Initial testing has shown these modifications to be
mostly effective.  If these modifications do not prove to be entirely
successful, the Company would be required to seek other methods to process its
accounting information.

The Company's formal Y2K program was established to ensure that the Company's
initial conclusions were correct.  The program is conducted under the direction
of its Vice President & General Counsel and oversight of the Audit Committee of
the Board of Directors.  The Y2K "Committee" consists of a Y2K coordinator from
each operating location and has met twice to date.  The Committee will meet
formally four times over the next eight months to review plans and to share
results of each of the Committee member's efforts.

The Company's Y2K Program addresses Y2K from four perspectives:

* the Company looks at the products and services it sells to determine whether
Y2K will impact their performance;

* the Company looks at the materials, products and services it buys to
determine whether the suppliers of such materials, products and services or the
materials, products or services themselves will be impacted by Y2K in such a
way as to adversely impact the Company's operations;

* the Company looks at its interfaces with its customers and suppliers to
determine whether Y2K will adversely affect such interfaces; and

* the Company reviews its internal operations, including engineering,
manufacturing, finance and administrative (office and facilities equipment,
general purpose computers and related systems) to determine whether Y2K will
adversely affect any of these functions.

The formalized Y2K program encompasses three phases:

* Phase 1 established a baseline of Y2K compliance by a thorough review and
audit of each of the above four perspectives and determined readiness by
analysis and/or actual testing as necessary.  This phase has been completed.

* Phase 2 determines a budget and actions necessary to bring into compliance
any areas determined to be either deficient, potentially deficient or in an
indeterminable state and a schedule for implementation completion.  This phase
is nearly complete.  To date, a budget of $250,000 has been established for
costs of those areas and actions identified.  These costs are being expensed as
incurred.

* Phase 3 will verify by analysis and actual test that any material Y2K issues
have been corrected and that all systems are Y2K compliant.  This phase is
expected to be completed by the third quarter of 1999.  Contingency plans will
also be established at that time.  Significant testing has already taken place,
and no material issues have been identified.

Based upon the Company's review over the last two years and its testing and
findings to date, the Company does not believe that any costs associated with
Y2K will be material.  However, if the modifications to accounting programs
provided by outside vendors, which to date have proven successful, do not
eventually prove entirely successful, the cost of replacing these programs
could have a material adverse effect.  The Company presently expects that any
necessary remedial costs will be expensed.
<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 11

As part of the Company's Y2K program, the Company is currently seeking
information regarding Y2K compliance from vendors, customers, manufacturers and
financial institutions associated with the Company.  However, given the
reliance on third party information as it relates to their compliance programs,
no assurance can be given that the Company's information systems or operations
will not be affected by third-party failures to complete their Y2K projects on
a timely basis.

"Safe Harbor" Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995

The statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in oral statements
which may be made by representatives of the Company relating to plans,
strategies, economic performance and trends and other statements that are not
descriptions of historical facts may be forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27(a)
of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21(e) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934.  Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and
uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially from those currently
anticipated due to a number of factors, which include, but are not limited to
the following for each of the types of information noted.

U.S. and international military program sales, follow-on procurement, contract
continuance, and future program awards, upgrades and spares support are subject
to:

   U.S. and international military budget constraints and determinations;
   U.S. congressional and international legislative body discretion;
   U.S. and international government administration policies and priorities;
   changing world military threats, strategies and missions;
   competition from foreign manufacturers of platforms and equipment;
   NATO country determinations regarding participation in common programs;
   changes in U.S. and international government procurement timing,
     strategies and practices; and
   the general state of world military readiness and deployment.

Commercial satellite programs and equipment sales, follow-on procurement,
contract continuance and future program awards are subject to:

   establishment and continuance of various consortiums for satellite
     constellation programs;
   delay in launch dates due to equipment, weather or other factors
     beyond the control of the Company; and
  development of sufficient customer base to support a particular
     satellite constellation program.

Other commercial product sales are subject to:
   success of product development programs currently underway or
     planned;
   competitiveness of current and future product production costs and
     prices; and
   market and customer base development for new product programs.

Achievement of margins on sales, earnings and cash flow can be affected by:
unanticipated technical problems; government termination of contracts for
convenience; decline in expected levels of revenues; underestimation of
anticipated costs on specific programs; risks inherent in integrating recent
acquisitions into the Company's overall structure; and risks associated with
year 2000 compliance by the Company, its customers, suppliers and other third
parties.  Expectations of future Federal income tax rates can be affected by a
variety of factors, including amounts of profits relating to foreign sales.

The Company has no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
