(1)  Initial  filing covered 100,000 shares.  This Amendment  provides
     for an additional 200,000 shares, resulting in a total amount  of
     300,000 shares.

(2)  The   shares   are  to  be  offered  at  prices   not   presently
     determinable.  The  offering price is estimated  solely  for  the
     purpose of calculating the registration fee (based on the average
     of  the  high  and  low  prices reported on  the  American  Stock
     Exchange on September 21, 1999).

(3)  The  registration fee has been computed pursuant to Rule 457  and
     applied  to  the 200,000 additional shares provided for  in  this
     Amendment  to Registration Statement.  The registration  fee  for
     the initial 100,000 shares was previously paid.

                           PRELIMINARY NOTE

     This amendment is being filed as a result of an amendment to  the
Comptek Research, Inc., 1994 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option  Plan
approved  by  the shareholders of Comptek at the 1999  Annual  Meeting
held  on  August 13, 1999.  The amendment of the option plan  provided
for,  among other things, an increase in shares subject to the  option
plan from 100,000 to 300,000.

     Re:    Comptek Research, Inc., 1994 Stock Option Plan for
            Non-Employee Directors

Dear Sirs:

I have acted as counsel for Comptek Research, Inc. ("Comptek") in
connection with the registration by Comptek under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of 300,000 shares of common stock,
par value $.02 per share, of Comptek ("Common Stock") issuable under
Comptek's 1994 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors, as
amended, (the "Plan") and subject to adjustment as provided therein,
under a registration statement on Form S-8, as amended, (the
"Registration Statement") about to be filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

I have examined originals, or copies certified to my satisfaction, of
all such corporate records of Comptek, agreements and other
instruments, certificates of public officials and officers and
representatives of Comptek, and such other documents as I have deemed
necessary as a basis for the opinions hereafter expressed.

Based on the foregoing and having regard to legal considerations that
I deem relevant, I am of the opinion that, when said shares of Common
Stock have been received for said shares in accordance with the
provisions of the Plan and said shares of Common Stock have been
issued by Comptek as provided under the Plan, said shares of Common
Stock will be duly authorized, validly issued and outstanding, fully
paid and nonassessable, with no personal liability attaching to the
ownership thereof.

I hereby consent to the inclusion of this opinion in the Registration
Statement.

Very truly yours,


/s/Christopher A. Head
Christopher A. Head
Executive Vice President
  and General Counsel
