Optex Systems, Inc. recently signed a $2.6 million contract for periscopes with an unnamed international defense contractor.

A manufacturer of optical sighting systems and assemblies for domestic and foreign militaries, Optex will deliver the products on a continuous basis over the next five years, which is in keeping with its normal operating procedures.
