ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS AND REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

         Miltope Group Inc.  ("MGI")  (NasdaqSC:  MILT) announced today that its
stockholders  have approved the previously  announced  merger  pursuant to which
Vision  Technologies  Kinetics  will  acquire  MGI for  $5.78  per share and one
contingent  value right per share. The transaction is expected to close prior to
the end of the year.

         On December  19,  2003,  MGI issued a press  release,  titled  "Miltope
Stockholders Approve Mergers" (attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 99.1).

         NOTE REGARDING  FORWARD LOOKING  STATEMENTS.  The matters  discussed in
this  Current  Report on Form 8-K that are not  historical  facts  are  "forward
looking  statements"  within the  meaning of the Private  Securities  Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 and MGI  intends  that such  forward  looking  statements  be
subject to the safe harbors  created  thereby.  MGI warns that caution should be
taken in relying upon any forward looking  statements  contained herein, as they
involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of
MGI to be materially  different from any future results  expressed or implied by
such  forward  looking  statements.  Examples  of such  risks and  uncertainties
include,  but are not limited to, the ability of MGI to  consummate  the sale of
MGI, future demand for MGI's products and services, general economic conditions,
actions of  competitors,  termination  of  contracts at the  convenience  of the
United  States  government,  customer  funding  variations  in  connection  with
multi-year  contracts and follow-on options,  and other risks and uncertainties.
Should  one or more of  these  risks or  uncertainties  materialize,  or  should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect,  actual results may vary materially from
those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. MGI does
not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward  looking  statement
made by it or on its  behalf,  whether  as a result of new  information,  future
events or otherwise.
