Look up the PowerRating of KTOS and see how it has performed over the past week as well as the current proprietary PowerRating.

SAN DIEGO, Sep 9, 2009 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- KTOS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq:KTOS), a leading provider of information technology, information assurance, public safety, and workforce development services, today announced that it has been awarded two contracts to assist the U.S. Navy in advancing the skills, knowledge and capabilities of its Information Technology workforce.

In the first contract, Kratos will develop additional modules for the Virtual Radio Room Simulation (VRR Sim) supporting Journeyman Communication Core and IT Specialist Accession curricula at the Center of Information Dominance. The simulations replace aging and expensive technical training suites in several Navy schoolhouses and provide an extensible technology platform for future system acquisition and modernization requirements.

In the second of the two contracts, Kratos will develop policy processes, performance aids and training materials to support the management of Training Devices, Simulators and Technical Training Equipment (TTE) in Navy IT classrooms and labs across the country.

According to Mike Bennett, General Manager of Kratos Workforce Development Solutions, "We are proud of these two wins because they show the breadth of our workforce support capabilities. For the VRR Sim project we will be using advanced simulation techniques to develop cutting-edge learning solutions. At the other end of the spectrum, for the TTE Inventory project we will apply management and performance support expertise to assure that the Navy has the information management infrastructure it needs to successfully execute on its training and education mission."
