                                                                    Exhibit 99.1


                 DRS Technologies to Record Charge in
               First Quarter for Weapon Sights Program

    Company Updates Fiscal Year Diluted EPS Guidance to $3.00-$3.10


    PARSIPPANY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 27, 2007--DRS
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: DRS) today announced that it would record an
operating charge related to the Thermal Weapon Sights II (TWS II)
program when it reports its fiscal 2008 first quarter results on
August 9, 2007.

    The pretax charge, which is expected to approximate $37 million,
or $23 million after tax, primarily reflects the cost of procuring new
material following recent design modifications, coupled with the
write-off of existing inventory that can no longer be utilized on the
program. The TWS II program is supported by the company's
Reconnaissance, Surveillance & Target Acquisition (RSTA) Segment.

    The company said it expects to resume shipments during its fiscal
second quarter, which ends September 30, 2007. Recognizing the
importance of the TWS II program to U.S. combat forces, Mark S.
Newman, chairman, president and chief executive officer of DRS
Technologies, said, "We regret the impact of this program delay on our
customer. The company is fully committed to the TWS II program and
remains dedicated to applying the necessary resources to resume
production and deliver the needed equipment as soon as possible."

    The company indicated it expects to report revenues above $725
million for the fiscal 2008 first quarter ended June 30, 2007, with
organic growth exceeding 15 percent. New orders for products and
services of approximately $900 million also are expected.

    In anticipation of the first quarter results, the company updated
its estimates for the full fiscal year. DRS raised its previous
revenue guidance to now range between $3.05 billion and $3.10 billion
for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2008, reflecting the strength of
its diversified business base. Current expectations for diluted
earnings per share of $3.00 to $3.10 on weighted average diluted
shares outstanding of approximately 41.8 million reflect the
anticipated benefit from higher revenues, planned operating
improvements, an estimated curtailment gain of approximately $11.7
million related to one of the company's benefit plans and a lower
effective income tax rate, as well as the impact of the TWS II charge.

    The TWS II program is providing a family of next-generation light,
medium and heavy sights mounted on U.S. Army and Marine Corps weapons.
Utilizing thermal imaging technology, TWS II is optimized to detect
threats at greater distances and provides a wider field of view,
enhancing user survivability on the operational and urban
battlefields.

    DRS Technologies, headquartered in Parsippany, New Jersey, is a
leading supplier of integrated products, services and support to
military forces, intelligence agencies and prime contractors
worldwide. The company employs approximately 10,000 people.
