BACKGROUND

Plessey South Africa acquired the Company Servitek in the early 1980s to expand its business activities into the mobile radio and Navigation Systems fields. In those days Servitek represented SEL and after this acquisition Plessey SA naturally represented SEL in South Africa for its Navigation Systems Business.

When Dimension Data acquired Plessey SA in 1998, the business units that they did not require were sold to a Management team. These business units were grouped together and Tellumat (Pty) Limited, a new legal entity, was established.

The Defence Division of Tellumat (Pty) Limited comprised two separate business units – Radar and Navigation Systems. The Navigation Systems business unit carried on representing Airsys until Thales was formed. Thales of course chose to be represented in South Africa by its local Thales Company Racal Aviation which later became Flightcraft Aviation.
