                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Participants and Administrator of the
Sensytech, Inc. 401(k) Profit-Sharing Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of Sensytech, Inc. 401(k) Profit-Sharing Plan (the "Plan") at December 31, 1999,
and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December
31, 1999 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States,
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. The financial statements of
the Sensytech, Inc. 401(k) Profit-Sharing Plan as of December 31, 1998, were
audited by other auditors whose report dated July 14, 1999, expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes as of December 31, 1999 is presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements
but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the
Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

SENSYTECH, INC.
401(k) PROFIT-SHARING PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.     DESCRIPTION OF PLAN AND BENEFITS

       The following description of the Sensytech, Inc. 401(k) Profit-Sharing
       Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should
       refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
       provisions.

       GENERAL
       The Plan is a defined contribution, stock bonus and profit-sharing plan
       covering all full-time employees of the Sensytech, Inc. (the "Company")
       who meet the eligibility requirements of the Plan. It is subject to the
       provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA).

       CONTRIBUTIONS
       Each year, participants may make contributions up to 15% of pretax annual
       compensation into the 401(k) plan. Participants direct the investment of
       their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan.
       The Plan currently offers nine mutual funds as investment options for
       participants. The Company contributes to the Plan at a rate of 50% of the
       employees' contribution, up to 6% of the employees' salary. Contributions
       are allocated among individual accounts in the name of the eligible
       employees. In no event, shall contributions for any year exceed the
       maximum amount deductible under the provisions of the Internal Revenue
       Code.

       PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
       Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
       contribution and allocations of (a) the Company's contribution, (b) Plan
       earnings, and (c) forfeiture of terminated participants' nonvested
       accounts. Allocations are based on participant account balances and
       compensation, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled
       is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested
       account.

       VESTING
       Participants are vested immediately in their contributions plus actual
       earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company's contribution portion of their
       accounts is based on years of continuous service. A participant is 100
       percent vested after seven years of credited service.

       PARTICIPANT LOANS
       Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up
       to a maximum of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account balance, whichever
       is less. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's
       account and bear interest at rates equal to the Federal Reserve Prime
       Rate on the date of the loan plus 1%. For the year ended December 31,
       1999, new participant loans were made in the amount of $85,979 and
       principal payments were made in the amount of $46,975.

       PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
       On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a
       participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum amount equal to the
       value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account, or
       annual installments over a ten-year period. For termination of service
       for other reasons, a participant may receive the value of the vested
       interest in his or her account as a lump-sum distribution.

401(k) PROFIT-SHARING PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

       FORFEITURES
       In 1999, 1998 forfeitures totaling $15,926 were reallocated to eligible
       participants account balances. As of December 31, 1999, 1999 forfeitures
       totaling $86,391 are to be reallocated to eligible participant account
       balances in 2000. These amounts were not used to off-set current year
       employer matches.

       OTHER
       Administrative expenses, including trustee, legal, auditing, and other
       fees, are paid by the Company and, as such, are not expenses of the Plan.

       Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
       right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
       terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of
       Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

2.     SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
       The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of
       mutual funds and other investment securities. These investments are
       exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risk.
       It is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks, in the near
       term would materially affect participant account balances and the amounts
       reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits during the
       reporting period.

       INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION
       The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Shares of mutual funds
       and common stock are valued at quoted market prices which represent the
       net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end.

       Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
       Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded
       on the ex-dividend date.

       PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
       Benefits are recorded when paid.

       USE OF ESTIMATES
       The preparation of the Plan's financial statements in conformity with
       generally accepted accounting principles requires the plan administrator
       to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net
       assets available for benefits at the date of the financial statements and
       the changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting
       period, and, when applicable, disclosure of contingent assets and
       liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
