(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
