General Electric [GE] has sold and delivered two of its CTX 9000 DSi explosive detection systems to Abu Dhabi International Airport for inline screening of checked bags. GE says the sale, which reinforces its strong and growing presence in the Middle East, “reflects a growing global trend toward the adoption of CT (Computed Tomography)-based EDS as the solution of choice for checked bag screening.” GE Security’s Homeland Protection distributor in the United Arab Emirates, International Aeradio Emirates (IAL), helped secure the contract. IAL is a subsidiary of United Kingdom-based SERCO Group plc.
