        This Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D relates to the common stock,
par value $. 10 per share, of Microdyne Corporation ("MICRODYNE"), the
principal executive offices of which are located at 207 S. Peyton Street,
Alexandria, Virginia 22314.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

        Item 4 is amended by adding to the end of the Item the following:

              On February 18, 1994, Mr. Cunningham sold 1,540,054 shares of
         common stock to MICRODYNE for an aggregate purchase price of
         $8,470,297 pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement")
         attached as Exhibit 3 to Amendment No. 3 to this Schedule 13-D.  The
         purchase price of $5.50 per share was the same as the price paid to
         shareholders who participated in the issuer tender concluded on the
         same date.

              Mr. Cunningham may dispose of additional shares in the future
         depending upon his evaluation of the factors described in the first
         paragraph of this Item.

         This Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D relates to the common stock,
par value $.10 per share, of Microdyne Corporation ("MICRODYNE"), the principal
executive offices of which are located at 207 S. Peyton Street, Alexandria,
Virginia 22314.


ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         Item 4 is amended by adding to the end of the Item the following:

                 On January 4, 1994, Mr. Cunningham and MICRODYNE entered into
         the Stock Purchase Agreement attached as Exhibit 3 to this statement,
         pursuant to which MICRODYNE has agreed to purchase from Mr. Cunningham
         the number of common shares representing an aggregate purchase price
         of $7,680,000 at the same purchase price per share to be paid to
         shareholders participating in the issuer tender offer further
         described in Schedule 13E-4 filed with the Securities Exchange
         Commission on January 4, 1994 ("Tender Offer").  In the event that the
         total purchase price of the shares purchased by MICRODYNE in the
         Tender Offer is less than $4,320,000, at MICRODYNE's election, it may
         also purchase from Mr. Cunningham the additional number of shares at
         the same purchase price per share representing the difference between
         $4,320,000 and the actual aggregate purchase price of shares purchased
         in the Tender Offer.

                 Mr. Cunningham may dispose of additional shares in the future
         depending upon his evaluation of the factors described in the first
         paragraph of this Item.

         TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Item 6 is amended by adding the following the end of the Item:

                 On August 30, 1993, Mr. Cunningham and Robert L. Cantor, a
         director of MICRODYNE, cancelled the Option Agreement dated October 7,
         1991, and entered into a new Option Agreement pursuant to which Mr.
         Cunningham granted to Mr. Cantor the right to acquire up to 100,000
         shares of the common stock owned by Mr. Cunningham.  The new Option
         Agreement is attached as Exhibit 4 to this statement.

         This Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D relates to the common stock,
par value $.10 per share, of Microdyne Corporation ("MICRODYNE"), the principal
executive offices of which are located at 207 S. Peyton Street, Alexandria,
Virginia 22314.


ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         Item 4 is amended by adding to the end of the Item the following:

                 As discussed in Item 5, from February 18, 1992, to the date of
         this Amendment, Mr. Cunningham sold 210,000 shares of MICRODYNE common
         stock.  On February 24, 1992, Mr. Cunningham determined not to make
         further sale of shares during the "window period" which commenced
         February 18, 1992 and ends March 3, 1992.  Mr. Cunningham may dispose
         of additional shares in the future depending upon his evaluation of
         the factors described in the first paragraph of this Item.


ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Item 5 is amended to read as follows:

                 The aggregate number of shares of MICRODYNE common stock owned
         by Mr. Cunningham is 9,040,000, and the percentage of MICRODYNE common
         stock owned by Mr. Cunningham is 65.9%.  Mr. Cunningham has sole power
         to vote and sole power to dispose of all of the MICRODYNE common stock
         owned by him, except for 100,000 shares subject to an option described
         in Item 6, below, as to which Mr. Cunningham has sole voting power and
         shared dispositive power.  Pursuant to the terms of the Escrow
         Agreement described in Item 6, Mr. Cunningham has agreed to retain
         certain of the shares of MICRODYNE common stock reflected in this
         statement.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         Item 4 is amended by adding to the end of the Item the following:

              On February 18, 1992, Mr. Cunningham filed with the Securities
         and Exchange Commission a Form 144 setting forth his intention to sell
         400,000 shares of Microdyne common stock. Subject to the factors
         described in the first paragraph of this Item, Mr. Cunningham intends
         to effect further sales of Microdyne common stock, up to the amount
         set forth in his Form 144, during Microdyne's "window period" which
         commenced February 18, 1992 and ends March 3, 1992, and during any
         subsequent window period which occurs during the 90 day period
         following February 18, 1992.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Item 5 is amended to read as follows:

                 The aggregate number of shares of MICRODYNE common stock owned
         by Mr. Cunningham is 9,140,000, and the percentage of MICRODYNE common
         stock owned by Mr. Cunningham is 66.6%. Mr. Cunningham has sole power
         to vote and sole power to dispose of all of the MICRODYNE common stock
         owned by him, except for 100,000 shares subject to an option described
         in Item 6, below, as to which Mr. Cunningham has sole voting power and
         shared dispositive power. Pursuant to the terms of the Escrow
         Agreement described in Item 6, Mr. Cunningham has agreed to retain
         certain of the shares of MICRODYNE common stock reflected in this
         statement.

                 On February 18, 1992, Mr. Cunningham sold 10,000 shares of
         MICRODYNE common stock at a price of $12.00 per share and, on February
         21, 1992, Mr. Cunningham sold 100,000 shares at a price of $11.25. All
         transactions were effected through Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated,
         a market maker in MICRODYNE securities. Other than the transactions
         described in the preceding
<PAGE>   24

         sentences, Mr. Cunningham has not effected any transactions in
         MICRODYNE common stock during the past 60 days.

         RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Item 6 is amended by adding the following to the end of
the Item:

              On October 7, 1991, Mr. Cunningham and Robert L. Cantor, a
         director of MICRODYNE, entered into an option Agreement pursuant to
         which Mr. Cunningham granted to Mr. Cantor the right to acquire up to
         100,000 shares of the common stock owned by Mr. Cunningham (the
         "Option Agreement"). The Option Agreement provides, among other
         things, that Mr. Cantor may not exercise his right to acquire shares
         prior to January 1, 1992, and also provides that Mr. Cantor's right to
         acquire shares vests in accordance with the following schedule: 33,334
         shares on October 7, 1991, and an additional 33,333 shares on each of
         October 30, 1992 and October 30, 1993. Unvested options may be earlier
         terminated if Mr. Cantor is discharged as financial advisor to Mr.
         Cunningham. The preceding description of the Option Agreement is
         intended only as a summary; the Option Agreement is attached as
         Exhibit 2 to this statement.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

         Item 7 is amended to add the following:

         T. Cunningham in favor of Robert L. Cantor.

            WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

have in place at the closing of the Merger a binder for a life insurance policy
on Mr. Cunningham in the amount of $5,000,000.  FTC and MICRODYNE agreed, due
to the disproportionate cost of such insurance, to substitute for the policy

dated June 21, 1991 among Mr. Cunningham, MICRODYNE and Hunton & Williams (the
"Escrow Agent").  The following description of the Escrow Agreement is intended
only as a summary;  the Escrow Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1 to this
statement.

          Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, Mr. Cunningham delivered to the
Escrow Agent at the closing of the Merger certificates representing 500,000
shares of MICRODYNE common Stock (the "Initial Escrowed Shares").  Mr.
Cunningham agreed to retain sole beneficial interest in the "Escrowed Shares"
(which term is defined to include the Initial Escrowed Shares plus any further
shares required to be deposited with the Escrow Agent by the Escrow Agreement)
until the "Termination Date."

          The "Termination Date" is defined in the Escrow Agreement to mean the
earlier of (i) the third anniversary date of the Escrow Agreement, (ii) a
"change in control" (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) of MICRODYNE, (iii)
the date of death of Mr. Cunningham or (iv) the date MICRODYNE obtains at its
expense a life insurance policy of Mr. Cunningham in the amount of $5,000,000
payable to MICRODYNE as the sole beneficiary and with at least a one-year term.

          The market value of the Escrowed Shares is to be reevaluated on or
about every January 2 and July 1 of each year, commencing January 2, 1992 (a
"Reevaluation Date").  On each Reevaluation Date, the Escrow Agency is required
to determine the market value of the Escrowed Shares based upon the average
closing price of the MICRODYNE common stock for the 15 business days prior to
the Reevaluation Date.  If the market value of the Escrowed Shares is less than
$5,000,000, Mr. Cunningham is required to deposit with the Escrow Agent
certificates representing that number of full shares of MICRODYNE common
stock with a market value at least equal to the difference between $5,000,000
and the market value of the Escrowed Shares.  If the market value of the
Escrowed Shares exceeds $5,500,000, that number of full shares which most
closely represents the excess of the market value over $5,500,000 is required
to be returned to Mr. Cunningham.

          For the purposes of complying with his obligations to deliver shares
under the Escrow Agreement, Mr. Cuningham is required to retain registered in
his name, free and clear of all liens, claims or other encumbrances,
certificates representing 300,000 shares of MICRODYNE common stock (the
"Reserved Shares").  The Reserved Shares are in addition to the Initial Escrowed
Shares.  Mr. Cunningham also agreed to retain sole beneficial interest in the
Reserved Shares until the Termination Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Escrow Agreement provides that the number of Escrowed Shares and Reserved
Shares at any given time shall not exceed 1,250,000.

If the termination Date is the third anniversary of the date of the Escrow
Agreement, or if the Escrow Agreement is terminated for any reason other than
the death of Mr. Cunningham, the Escrow Agent is required to release the
Escrowed Shares to obligations under the Escrow Agreement.

              If the Termination Date is the date of death of Mr. Cunningham,
the Escrow Agent is required to perform a final evaluation of the market value
of the Escrowed Shares based upon the average closing price of the MICRODYNE
common for 15 business days beginning on the fifth business day after the public
announcement of the death of Mr. Cunningham.  If the market value of the
Escrowed Shares is less than $5,000,000, the estate or legal representative of
Mr. Cunningham is required to deposit with the Escrow Agent certificates
representing that number of full shares of MICRODYNE common stock with a
market value at least equal to the difference between $5,000,000 and the market
value of the Escrowed Shares.  The Escrowed Shares, plus any shares required to
be delivered by the estate or legal representative of Mr. Cunningham, then
become the sole property of MICRODYNE and may be retained or disposed of as
determined by the Board of Directors of MICRODYNE.  The Escrow Agreement
provides that the number of Escrowed Shares plus the number of shares required 
to be delivered by the estate or legal representative of Mr. Cunningham shall 
not exceed 1,250,000.  If the market value of the Escrowed Shares exceeds 
$5,500,000, that number of full shares which most closely represents the 
excess of the market value over $5,000,000 is required to be returned to the 
estate or legal representative of Mr. Cunningham, and all of the Escrowed 
Shares not returned to Mr. Cunningham become the sole property of MICRODYNE 
and may be retained or disposed of as determined by the Board of Directors of 
MICRODYNE.

            Mr. Cunningham has the sole and exclusive right to vote the Escrowed
Shares and to receive dividends and other distributions on the Escrowed Shares
until the Termination Date.
