General Dynamics has completed its previously announced purchase of Fortress Technologies, Inc, a provider of secure wireless networking equipment for the US military and other government customers. The value of the cash transaction has not been disclosed.

Fortress Technologies produces a portfolio of mesh networking products that enable secure wireless network capabilities for battlefield logistics, convoy, command post and soldier applications. Built on commercially available technologies, Fortress Technologies’ ruggedised products improve soldiers’ combat effectiveness and survivability by increasing their access to information.

“The acquisition of Fortress accelerates our ability to deliver a wider array of secure, Wi-Fi-based tactical wireless communication systems for military and government users worldwide,” said Chris Marzilli, President of General Dynamics C4 Systems.
