"Engineering is not merely knowing and being knowledgeable, like a walking encyclopedia; engineering is not merely analysis; engineering is not merely the possession of the capacity to get elegant solutions to non-existent engineering problems; engineering is practicing the art of the organized forcing of technological change... Engineers operate at the interface between science and society..."

~Dean Gordon Brown



Frontier Electronic Systems Corp. was founded as an engineering company more that 32 years ago to provide engineering solutions to its customers. This focus has resulted in the development of unique engineering and product development capabilities not found in other companies of its size. Frontier is the US Navy’s engineering design, qualification, manufacturing, and field engineering agent for all facets of shipboard Radar and Video distribution. Frontier’s engineering expertise in Space Flight power control electronics supports commercial and government manned space flight and satellite programs. Frontier’s excellence in providing engineering obsolescence, avionics, test equipment, simulation and manufacturing process solutions has and continues to be sought by a wide variety of customers.
