OSI Systems, the Hawthorne-based maker of security detection and healthcare equipment, won a $7.3 million contract from the US Army for multiple relocatable Gamma Radiographic Detection Systems.

Known as the Rapiscan GaRDS, this product line detects hidden contraband, including weapons, explosives, weapons of mass destruction, drugs and undeclared goods.

The systems bought by the Army are to be deployed in multiple undisclosed international locations.
