This is question time folks.
I understand that the full body scanners (perhaps I should have said body scanner)used at airports cost 100,000. each. Apparently there is only 1 currently in use in the U.K.(at Manchester).
In order to service international flights , Heathrow requires 25 of these things .
Given the current hysteria surrounding this issue,they are sure to become a basic requirement for many if not all airports. I am surprised that it has taken this long for the topic to hit the front page.
My question ,therefore, is -Who makes these things? They look to be a real big money maker for somebody.

apparently QQ. developed the technology for body scanners, whether they will receive any benefit from this remains to be seen.
