             NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  The accompanying statements are unaudited and have been prepared by ECC
    pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
    Commission.  The June 30, 1994 balance sheet was derived from audited
    financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by
    generally accepted accounting principles.  In the opinion of management
    such consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting
    of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the
    consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
    the interim periods presented.  The aforementioned consolidated financial
    statements have been prepared substantially in conformity with the
    accounting principles reflected in the consolidated financial statements
    included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
    ended June 30, 1994.

2.  Earnings per share for the three month periods ended September 30, 1994 and
    1993 are based on net income divided by the weighted average number of
    common share and common share equivalents outstanding.

    Common stock equivalents (stock options, warrants and Employee Stock
    Purchase Plan) are excluded from the calculation of per share data when
    their dilutive effect is not material.

3.  ECC has filed claims for additional costs the Company incurred for work
    performed on three "build-to-print" Pop-Up-Target contracts for the U.S.
    Army, seeking over $3.0 million, based on deficient technical packages
    provided to ECC as conceded by the Army.  The initial claim was filed in
    June 1986 and has been in litigation before the Armed Services Board of
    Contract Appeals since June 1989.  During  FY 1994, the Board issued a
    decision awarding the Company minimal damages on its claim.  The Company has
    appealed the Board's decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the
    Federal Circuit.  Management, based in-part upon advise of counsel, believes
    it will prevail in this appeal.

4.  Effective July 1, 1994, the Company conformed its method of accounting for
    S,G&A costs on an interim basis to the method used for annual reporting
    purposes, that is, charged to operations as incurred.  The effect of the
    change for the quarter ended September 30, 1994 was to decrease earnings by
    $568,000 before taxes or $0.05 per share after taxes.  The Company
    previously allocated S,G&A costs to contracts utilizing an annualized
    estimated rate to absorb such costs on an interim basis.

5.  Effective July 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
    Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for Post
    employment Benefits."  SFAS No. 112 requires recognition of the cost of
    certain benefits paid to former or inactive employees on an accrual basis
    and principally affects the Company's accounting for disability benefits.
    The impact of adopting SFAS No. 112 was immaterial.

                   ECC INTERNATIONAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


a)  Material Changes in Financial Condition 
    ---------------------------------------

    During the three month period ended September 30, 1994, the Company's
    principal sources of cash were proceeds from the new loan facility and the
    remaining proceeds from the private equity placement.

    These funds were used for the increase in costs and estimated earnings in
    excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, additions to property, plant
    and equipment and the repayment of the Company's existing debt.  In
    addition, these funds were used to pay the remaining unfunded portion of the
    1994 profit sharing contribution, payroll taxes and trade creditors.

    The substantial increase in accounts receivable during the first quarter of
    fiscal year 1995 was primarily the result of billings related to the 54
    bottle vending machines as well as billings for the U.K. operation for which
    payments were received during the second quarter of fiscal year 1995.

    The decrease in inventory is primarily the result of continued deliveries
    on the 54 bottle vending machines for which inventory levels were
    inordinately high at June 30, 1994.  The Company had originally planned on
    producing 600 machines in June and July and had accordingly scheduled
    sufficient material to meet all of June's and part of July's requirements.
    However, due to various delays, the Company produced only 204 units in June
    and therefore had on hand at June 30, 1994, and inordinate supply of vending
    materials.

    Advances on long term contracts increased as a result of an advance payment
    billed on a contract procured by the U.K. operation during the first quarter
    of fiscal year 1995. This advance payment was received during the second
    quarter of fiscal year 1995.

    The Company entered into a new loan facility with a bank on September 20,
    1994 totaling $20 million.  The new agreement consists of a $9 million term
    loan and an $11 million revolving credit facility.  (See Note 6 to the
    Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30,
    1994).  Proceeds from the new loan facility were used to pay the outstanding
    balance under the Company's revolving credit facility with its primary
    lender on that date.  Under the new loan agreement, the Company is required
    to make principal payments of $375,000 in the third and fourth quarter of
    fiscal year 1995 and quarterly principal payments of $750,000 during fiscal
    year 1996.

    The Company anticipates spending approximately $5 million on capital
    additions for the continued expansion of both the vending and the U.K.
    operations as well as for the continued refurbishment of the older areas of
    the Orlando facility.

    Other than as stated above the Company has no other material commitments for
    capital expenditures.  Management believes that with funds received from the
    recent private equity placement, the new loan facility and its projected
    cash flow the Company will have sufficient resources to meet current and
    future operating commitments.

b)  Material Changes in Results of Operations
    -----------------------------------------

    Sales increased for the period ended September 30, 1994 compared to the
    same period ended September 30, 1993.  The increase in Sales is primarily
    related to the vending and U.K. operations with a marginal volume decrease
    in the domestic operations.  The increase in the vending operations is the
    result of steady production of the bottle vending machines under a contract
    procured during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1994.  The increase in
    U.K. operation sales is the result of continued progress under an existing
    contract as well as progress on a new $19.5 million contract received during
    the first quarter of fiscal year 1995.

    Gross Margin as a percentage of sales decreased in the quarter ended
    September 30, 1994 versus the quarter ended September 30, 1993.  The gross
    margin on domestic contracts improved in the quarter ended September 30,
    1994 due to the receipt by the Company of several new contracts during late
    fiscal year 1994 for copies of trainers and training systems previously
    built by ECC and these contracts are yielding higher gross margins than
    originally projected.  The improved gross margin on these contracts reflects
    lower than originally anticipated costs due to increased efficiencies
    achieved in producing copies of previously manufactured trainers.
    Offsetting the increase in gross margin in the domestic operation is a low
    gross margin on the new bottle vending machines resulting from higher
    start-up costs than had originally been projected.

    The bottle vending machine production line ceased operations during October
    to allow for quality control refinements and testing on existing units.  The
    contractual delivery  schedule of the bottle vending machines should not be
    affected as production was ahead of schedule.  Production of these machines
    resumed in November and management expects the bottle vending operation to
    attain improved margins in subsequent quarters as efficiencies are gained
    and production costs come in line with original projections.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September
    30, 1994 increased compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1993.  This
    increase is primarily the result of higher marketing incentives, marketing
    rep commissions, technical support costs, consultant fees and freight costs
    related to the vending division.  In addition, selling general and
    administrative costs of the U.K. operation increased over the same period
    last year.  The increase in marketing rep commissions, which is based upon
    the amount of  bottle vending units sold, reflects the fact that no bottle
    vending production occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 1993 and
    therefore no commission expense was incurred.

    The increase in selling, general, and administrative costs of the U.K.
    operation is the result of increased bid and proposal costs and technical
    support in response to increased business opportunities.
              
    Interest expense has decreased for the quarter ended September 30, 1994
    versus the quarter ended September 30, 1993 as a result of a scheduled July
    principal payment on the Company's debt, thereby reducing interest expense
    for the quarter.  The Company's new loan facility entered into on September
    20, 1994 did not significantly impact interest expense for the quarter.
