HISTORY (MILESTONES) Victory Microwave Corporation was first established in 1990 as a division
of Victory Industrial Corporation by Dr. Ming Hui Chen. In 2003, Victory's
microwave division was spun off into a separate entity, Victory Microwave
Corporation. This has allowed Dr. Chen and his team to focus on his
vision -- to design and develop high performance and quality microwave
devices and produce them at low cost in high volume with the die-casting
manufacturing process. Over more than a decade, Victory has developed
extensive experience in supplying components to many customers for military,
space and commercial programs.
Military
Applications. Victory's initial business in 1991 included development of
several antennas and microwave components to be used in Taiwan military radar
systems. Since that time, Victory has continued to offer a wide variety of antennas,
microwave components and subsystems (including monopulse comparators and rotary
joints) to the Taiwan military and leading research institutes.

Space
Applications. Victory began supporting the Taiwan space program in 1992
through ROCSAT-1, the government sponsored LEO satellite project. As a strong
testament to Victory's technical expertise, we continue to be the sole Taiwanese
supplier of space qualified antenna hardware for the ROCSAT programs (e.g. ROCSAT-2
and ROCSAT-3) over the past decade. As part of the ROCSAT program, Victory received
technology transfer from TRW Space & Electronics Group in the United States and
sent engineers and QA personnel to undergo training for space qualified material
processes and work standards. Victory's products were subsequently space qualified
to TRW's rigorous requirements, and Victory currently counts leading and emerging
satellite antenna and microwave hardware developers such as NEC in Japan, Astrium
in France, Orbital Sciences Corp. in the United States and the SaTReCi initiative
in Korea as its customers. |

Commercial
Applications. Victory also started offering a wide range of commercial
antennas and microwave components in 1994. Victory first expanded into the VSAT
ground equipment market by investing in tooling and successfully developing methods
for die-casting OMTs and feed networks. By 1995, Victory had developed several
models of VSAT antennas for Ground Terminal that were certified by INTELSAT. Victory
has expanded its product base since 1996 to include components (such as waveguide
filters and diplexers) used in terrestrial microwave radio systems from 3 to 38
GHz links. Victory soon began high volume production of antennas and diplexers
used for subscribers and basestations in Ka-band LMDS systems by converging its
expertise in microwave engineering with die-casting techniques. This resulted
in rapid and on-time delivery of volume products that would have been impossible
by traditional manufacturing approaches. In the past year, Victory has completed
development of antennas and diplexers for available frequency spectrum bands at
2.4, 3.5 and 5.8 GHz. Victory
has received numerous awards and holds several patents on innovative designs since
its establishment. Victory's antennas and feed networks have gone through series
of improvements to receive Type Approval from INTELSAT and have also been approved
by EUTELSAT as a system component supplier. Over the past decade, Victory's microwave
division has grown from a single individual into a complete operational division
composed of highly talented engineers, technicians and production personnel who
are able to research, develop and manufacture state-of-the-art microwave components.
