L-3 Keeps Goods Flowing with the Broadest Range of Products on TSA’s Candidate Technologies List for Air Cargo Screening Requirements.
Starting in February 2009, the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will require 50% of all air cargo on passenger aircraft to be screened using the following TSA-approved screening methods: explosives detection systems (EDS), advanced technology (AT) X-ray or explosives trace detection.
L-3—with the largest team of on-site technicians at over 100 airports and major U.S. cities—stands out as the clear supplier of choice with landmark screening technologies that deliver exceptional efficiency and the industry’s highest proven throughput rates. From small packages to large boxes, L-3 offers a versatile platform of TSA-approved solutions to match the complex demands of screening break-bulk air cargo.
