ITEM - II

ORBIT INTERNATIONAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations

Three month period ended  June 30, 1999 v. June 30, 1998

      The Company currently operates in two industry segments.  Its
Orbit Instrument Division is engaged in the design and manufacture of
electronic components and subsystems (the "Electronics Segment").  Its
Behlman subsidiary is engaged in the design and manufacture of
commercial power units (the "Power Units Segment").

     Consolidated net sales for the three month period ended June 30,
1999 decreased to $3,609,000 from $4,235,000 for the three month period
ended June 30, 1998 principally due to decreased sales from the
Electronics Segment which were partially offset by increased sales from
the Power Units Segment.

     Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the three month period
ended June 30, 1999 decreased to 38.2.% from 44.0% for the three month
period ended June 30, 1998 due to lower gross profits realized by both
of the Company's segments due to product mix for the Power Units
Segment and certain costs of the Electronics Segment that did not
decrease despite the reduction in sales for the period.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month
period ended June 30, 1999 decreased to $1,192,000 from $1,407,000 for
the three month period ended June 30, 1998 principally due to several
cost cutting initiatives taken by the Company during the first quarter
of 1999.  Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage
of sales, for the three month period ended June 30, 1999 decreased
slightly to 33.0% from 33.2% for the comparable period in 1998.

     In July, 1998, the Company reached a settlement with respect to
the USA Classic class action securities litigation subject to an
executed "Stipulation of Settlement" by each of the parties and
approval of such by the court.  The Company's portion of the settlement
was $1,000,000 of which $500,000 had been previously accrued.
Accordingly, the Company recorded an additional charge of $500,000
during the three months ended June 30, 1998.

Interest expense for the three month period ended June 30, 1999
decreased to $82,000 from $89,000 for the three month period ended
June 30, 1998 due to a lower interest rate on amounts borrowed during
the period.



     Investment and other income for the three month period ended
June 30, 1999 slightly increased slightly to $98,000 from $93,000 for
the three month period ended June 30, 1998.

In connection with the resolution of the USA Classic class action
securities litigation in the prior period and its related uncertainties
and the consistent earnings from its continuing operations, pursuant to
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", the Company reduced its valuation allowance against its
existing deferred tax assets by $1,150,000 during the three months
ended June 30, 1998.

     Net income for the three month period ended June 30, 1999
decreased to $204,000 from $1,110,000 for the three month period ended
June 30, 1998.  Exclusive of the impact of the income tax benefit and
the settlement of the class action litigation, net income for the three
month period ended June 30, 1999 decreased to $204,000 from $460,000
for the same period last year principally due to the reduction in
revenues.

Six month period ended June 30, 1999 v. June 30, 1998

     Consolidated net sales for the six month period ended June 30,
1999 decreased to $7,018,000 from $8,520,000 for the six month period
ended June 30, 1998 principally due to decreased sales from both the
Electronics Segment and the Power Units Segment.

     Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the six month period
ended June 30, 1999 decreased to 38.9% from 42.7% for the six month
period ended June 30, 1998 due to lower gross profits realized by both
the Electronics Segment and the Power Units Segment due to certain
costs that did not decrease despite the reduction in sales for the
period.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six month
period ended June 30, 1999 decreased to $2,546,000 from $2,724,000 for
the six month period ended June 30 1998 principally due to several cost
cutting initiatives taken by the Company during the first quarter of
1999.  Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of
sales, for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased to 36.3% from
32.0% for the comparable period in 1998 principally due to decreased
sales during the current period.

     In July, 1998, the Company reached a settlement with respect to
the USA Classic class action securities litigation subject to an
executed "Stipulation of Settlement" by each of the parties and
approval of such by the court.  The Company's portion of the settlement
was $1,000,000 of which $500,000 had been previously accrued.
Accordingly, the Company recorded an additional charge of $500,000
during the six months ended June 30, 1998.



     Interest expense for the six month period ended June 30, 1999
decreased to $163,000 from $184,000 for the six month period ended June
30, 1998 due to a lower interest rate on amounts borrowed during the
period.

     Investment and other income for the six month period ended June
30, 1999 decreased to $163,000 from $200,000 for the six month period
ended June 30, 1998 principally due to a decrease in funds available
for investment in the current period.

     In connection with the resolution of the USA Classic class action
securities litigation in the prior period and its related uncertainties
and the consistent earnings from its continuing operations, pursuant to
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", the Company reduced its valuation allowance against its
existing deferred tax assets by $1,150,000 during the six months ended
June 30, 1998.

     Net income for the six month period ended June 30, 1999 decreased
to $186,000 from $1,581,000 for the six month period ended June 30,
1998.  Exclusive of the impact of the income tax benefit and the
settlement of the class action litigation, net income for the six month
period ended June 30, 1999 decreased to $186,00 from $931,000 for the
same period last year principally due to the reduction in revenues.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Inflation:

     Working capital increased to $8,261,000 at June 30, 1999 compared
to $7,941,000 at December 31, 1998. The ratio of current assets to
current liabilities increased to 3.4 to 1 at June 30, 1999 from 2.4 to
1 at December 31, 1998.

       Net cash flows used in operations for the six months ended June
30, 1999 was approximately $722,000, primarily attributable to the
payment related to the settlement of the class action litigation and a
decrease in accrued expenses and customer advances which was partially
offset by a decrease in accounts receivable and inventories.  Cash
flows provided by investing activities for the six months ended June
30, 1999 was approximately $2,244,000, due to the net sales of
marketable securities.  Cash flows provided by financing activities was
approximately $143,000, primarily attributable to proceeds of debt
which was partially offset by repayments of debt and treasury share
repurchases.

      All operations of the discontinued apparel companies have been
terminated.  All losses and obligations of these apparel operations
have been provided for, and accordingly, the Company does not
anticipate using any significant portion of its resources towards these
discontinued apparel operations.

     In August 1998, the Company closed on a new $4,000,000 credit
facility with a new lender secured by real property and other assets of
the Company.  The Company used $3,500,000 of the proceeds to replace
its existing asset based lending arrangement and the remaining $500,000
was borrowed in January, 1999 to partially fund a class action
securities litigation settlement of $1,000,000.

In September 1998, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a
stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to 250,000 shares of
its common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated
transactions.  Through August 3, 1999, the Company repurchased
approximately 157,000 shares at an average price of $1.67 per share.
The Company has not made any repurchases since the first quarter of
1999 in order for it to remain in compliance with financial covenants
related to its existing credit facility.

The Company's existing capital resources, including its bank
credit facilities, and its cash flow from operations are expected to be
adequate to cover the Company's cash requirements for the foreseeable
future.

     Inflation has not materially impacted the operations of the
Company.

Certain Material Trends

       Despite continued profitability in 1998, and through the first
two quarters of 1999, the Company continues to face a very difficult
business environment with continuing pressure on the Company's prices
for its sole source sales and a general reduction in the level of
funding for the defense sector.  The Company continues to pursue many
business opportunities, including programs in which it has long
participated but, due to industry-wide funding and pricing pressures,
the Company has encountered delays in the awards of these contracts.
The delay in receiving these awards will shift a portion of shipments
anticipated for 1999 into 2000.  Consequently, the Company projects
that the revenue of the Company's Electronics Segment in 1999 will not
match the levels recorded in 1998.

      The Company continues to seek new contracts which require
incurring up-front design, engineering, prototype and preproduction
costs.  While the Company attempts to negotiate contract awards for
reimbursement of product development, there is no assurance that
sufficient monies will be set aside by its customers, including the
U. S. Government, for such effort.  In addition, even if the U. S.
Government agrees to reimburse development costs, there is still a
significant risk of cost overrun which may not be reimbursable.
Furthermore, once the Company has completed the design and
preproduction stage, there is no assurance that funding will be
provided for future production.

     The Company is heavily dependent upon military spending,
particularly the Department of the Navy, as a source of revenues and
income.  The United States Navy fleet has been significantly reduced in
the past several years thereby impacting the procurement of equipment.
Any further reductions in the level of military spending by the United
States Government and/or further reductions to the United States fleet
could have a negative impact on the Company's future revenues and
earnings.  In addition, due to major consolidations in the defense
industry, it has become more difficult to avoid dependence on certain
customers for revenue and income.  Behlman's line of commercial
products gives the Company some diversity and the Orbit Instrument
Division is beginning to introduce certain of its products into
commercial and foreign markets.

      The Company retained OEM Capital Corp (OEM), an investment
banking firm specializing in the electronics, communications and
computer industries, to assist the Company in identifying viable
acquisition opportunities.  Although the Company is committed to
enhancing its sales and profitability through strategic acquisitions as
well as through internal growth, there is no guarantee that OEM will
present acquisition candidates that will ultimately result in a
transaction for the Company.

Year 2000

     In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes that
certain statements contained in the following discussion concerning the
change over to the year 2000 are forward-looking in nature and are
subject to many risks and uncertainties.  These forward-looking
statements include such matters as the Company's projected state of
readiness, the Company's projected cost of remediation, the expected
date of completion of remediation and the expected contingency plans
associated with any worst case scenarios.  Such statements also
constitute Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure within the meaning of the
Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act.

     The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year.  Such software
may recognize a date using 00 as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000.  This could result in system failures or miscalculations leading
to disruptions in the Company's activities and operations.

     The Company has developed a plan to modify its information
technology systems to recognize the Year 2000, including the purchase
of a new manufacturing software package, and is converting its critical
data processing systems.  The Company expects the project to  cost
between approximately $100,000 and $150,000.  This estimate includes
the price of new software and internal costs but excludes the costs to
upgrade and replace systems in the normal course of business as well as
potential costs for outside consultants to assist the Company in the
implementation of a new software package.  The Company does  not expect
this project to have a material effect on its operations in 1999. The
Company has also initiated discussions with its significant suppliers,
large customers and financial institutions to ensure that these parties
have appropriate plans to remediate Year 2000 issues where their
systems interface with Company systems or otherwise impact its
operations.  However, the Company is currently uncertain as to the
impact on its operations, liquidity and financial conditions should
these organizations fail to properly remediate their computer systems.

       While the Company intends to use diligent efforts and care to
implement the plan set forth above and to take any other necessary
steps with regard to its information technology systems to prepare for
the Year 2000, there is no assurance that such steps will effectively
accomplish such goal.  Furthermore, any failure on the part of the
Company's primary suppliers, service providers and customers to adapt
their respective information technology systems to recognize the Year
2000 could adversely impact the Company. Furthermore, the United States
Government has been a significant customer of the Company for many
years.  There have recently been several press reports concerning
whether certain departments of the United States Government will be
Year 2000 compliant on a timely basis.  To the extent problems are
identified, the Company will implement corrective procedures where
necessary to avoid any adverse effect on the Company's cash flow and
financial condition.

The failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result
in an interruption or failure of certain important business operations.
The failure of the Company's sales and billing systems  could result in
the Company's inability to timely post and record sales revenue and
expenses.  In addition, the aging of the Company's accounts payable
would be inaccurate.

     The Company has prepared contingency plans for certain critical
applications and it working on plans for others.  These contingency
plans involve, among other actions, manual workarounds, and protective
cash management procedures.

     The financial impact of any or all of the above worst-case
scenarios has not been and cannot be estimated by the Company due to
the numerous uncertainties and variables associated with such
scenarios.  Management believes, however, that its Year 2000 program
will significantly reduce the Company's risks associated with the
change over to the year 2000.

Forward Looking Statements

     Statements in this Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this
document as well as statements made in press releases and oral
statements that may be made by the Company or by officers, directors or

statements of historical or current fact constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the
actual results of the Company to be materially different from the
historical results or from any future results expressed or implied by
