Bittium received a purchase order from the Finnish Defence Forces for the
Software-Defined Radio based system products meant for tactical communications

Oulu, Finland, December 7, 2015 - Bittium has received a purchase order from the
Finnish  Defence Forces for  the Bittium Tactical  Wireless IP Network (TAC WIN)
system products, which are meant for tactical communications. The purchase order
is  the materialization  of a  purchase option  issued together  with a purchase
order  received  in  July  2014. Both  the  original  purchase order and the now
materialized  purchase option  are part  of the  renewal of  the Finnish Defence
Forces' command and control data networks with Bittium's TAC WIN system.

The  value of the  received purchase order  is EUR 5.1 million  (excl. VAT). The
order  has no  significant impact  on Bittium's  net sales,  operating result or
financial standing, and it has also no effect on Bittium's financial outlook for
the  year  2015, published  on  November  5, 2015 in the Interim Report January-
September 2015.

The  development work of the Bittium TAC WIN system began in September 2011 with
a  delivery contract signed  between Bittium and  the Finnish Defence Forces and
with  related  product  deliveries.  The  product deliveries started in December
2012 and  have  continued  with  the  purchase  order received in July 2014. The
products  that were ordered now will be  delivered to the Finnish Defence Forces
during the year 2016.

Bittium  Tactical Wireless IP Network (TAC  WIN) is a wireless broadband network
system  intended  for  military  and  public  safety  use. With the system MANET
(mobile  ad hoc network), link,  and connection networks can  be formed into one
logical  IP network quickly,  no matter what  the location is.  It is compatible
with existing fixed and wireless network infrastructures. The core of the system
is  a software-defined radio  based tactical router,  which is versatile, easily
adaptable  to different needs and can be easily updated with software for future
needs.  With the tactical router  users can freely form  both wired and wireless
broadband  data transfer connections.  The system comprises  also three types of
radio  heads, and each radio head covers its  own frequency band area and can be
used  for  flexible  formation  of  different  network  topologies for different
communication  needs.  All  the  products  of  the system are designed for harsh
conditions, and thanks to the system's automated functions the implementation of
the  system can  be done  quickly. More  information about  the Bittium  TAC WIN
system             and             the             related             products:
