Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
     On July 12, 1993, Orbit International Corp. (the "Company")
completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and
the business as a going concern of The Panda Group, Inc.
("Panda").  The Company continues to operate the acquired business

      The following discussion is necessarily incomplete and
selective, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
exhibits attached hereto.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined
have the meaning ascribed to them in the original Current Report

     On March 28, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement (the
"Agreement") with Panda and the Shareholders in order to (a)
reduce the purchase price for the assets acquired under the Asset

thereof, and to reflect certain other changes in the Note desired
by the parties, (b) amend certain other arrangements pursuant to
the Asset Purchase Agreement and documents executed in connection
therewith and (c) set forth certain other understandings.
     The purchase price for the assets purchased pursuant the
Asset Purchase Agreement was reduced from $15,000,000 to
$8,850,000.  The remaining $1,850,000 of the reduced purchase
price due will be paid pursuant to an amended promissory note as
follows: (i) $500,000 upon execution of the Agreement, (ii)
$250,000 payable on July 1, 1996, (iii) $250,000 payable on
January 1, 1997 and (iii) consecutive equal quarterly installments
of $42,500 commencing on March 31, 2002 and thereafter on the last

and including December 31, 2006.  
     In addition, the Company agreed to issue to each of the
Shareholders a 10-year warrant (collectively, the "Warrants") to
