the segment is a diversified supplier of live and virtual military training systems , and communication systems and products to the u.s. department of defense , other u.s. government agencies and allied nations . we design instrumented range systems for fighter aircraft , armored vehicles and infantry force-on-force live training weapons effects simulations , laser-based tactical and communication systems , and precision gunnery solutions . our communications products are aimed at intelligence , surveillance , and search and rescue markets . in 2010 , through two acquisitions , we added new product lines including multi-band communication tracking devices , and cross domain hardware solutions to address multi-level security requirements . mission support services ( mss ) is a leading provider of highly specialized support services to the u.s. government and allied nations . services provided include live , virtual and constructive training , real-world mission rehearsal exercises , professional military education , intelligence support , information technology , information assurance and related cyber support , development of military doctrine , consequence management , infrastructure protection and force protection , as well as support to field operations , force deployment and redeployment and logistics . sales increased 7 % in fiscal 2012 over 2011 , primarily due to growth of 20 % in cts . growth in 2012 sales from mss was nearly offset by a decrease in cds sales . sales increased to $ 1.381 billion in 2012 , compared to $ 1.296 billion in 2011 , with all of the growth coming from existing businesses . the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in a decrease in sales of $ 1.5 million in 2012 over 2011. sales increased 8 % in 2011 over 2010 , due to growth in all three business segments . sales grew to $ 1.296 billion in 2011 , compared to $ 1.198 billion in 2010. approximately half of the growth in 2011 was organic and half was the result of our acquisition of abraxas in december 2010 , which added $ 50.0 million to our 2011 revenue . sales in 2011would have increased by 4 % without the addition of abraxas and sales in our mss segment would have decreased 4 % absent this acquisition . the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar resulted in an increase in sales of $ 21.0 million in 2011 over 2010 . 27 growth in sales of 17 % in 2010 over 2009 also came from all three business segments . sales increased to $ 1.198 billion in 2010 , compared to $ 1.026 billion in 2009. nearly 80 % of the growth in 2010 was organic , while the remainder came from the consolidation of transys , a variable interest entity ( vie ) , and from two small acquisitions we made during 2010. the vie added $ 29.9 million to 2010 sales ; however these sales had no net margin and therefore had no effect on operating income . sales growth in 2010 without consolidation of the vie would have been approximately 14 % . the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in an increase in sales of $ 14.6 million in 2010 over 2009. see the segment discussions following for further information about segment sales . operating income increased 13 % to $ 128.0 million in 2012 compared to $ 113.5 million in 2011. cts and cds each contributed to the growth in operating income in 2012 , while mss operating income was down in 2012 from 2011. growth in cts sales was the primary reason for the increase in operating income , while cds operating income grew primarily due to a decrease in our investment in cross domain and global asset tracking products in 2012 compared to 2011. the current competitive environment in the government services industry is driving mss profit margins lower than in recent years , resulting in lower operating income . operating results for mss include an operating loss from abraxas of $ 1.3 million in 2012 , including amortization of intangible assets of $ 9.3 million , compared to a loss of $ 3.5 million in 2011 , which included amortization of intangible assets of $ 8.2 million and acquisition costs of $ 0.7 million . the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in a decrease in operating income of $ 0.6 million for 2012. operating income increased 6 % to $ 113.5 million in 2011 compared to $ 106.6 million in 2010. improved margins and higher sales in our transportation systems segment contributed significantly to the increase in our operating income . we incurred higher costs in 2010 than in 2011 on our contract in london for the transition of our contract from the vie to cubic , resulting in higher margins on this contract in 2011. operating income growth in 2011 was limited somewhat by an increase in the investment by cds in two businesses acquired in 2010 that are developing cross domain and global asset tracking products . the operating losses for these two businesses totaled $ 11.3 million in 2011 compared to $ 3.0 million in 2010. mss operating income in 2011 was lower than 2010 primarily because of an operating loss of $ 3.5 million incurred by the newly acquired abraxas business , as mentioned above . a $ 4.2 million gain was recorded by cds in 2010 related to the recovery of a receivable that had been reserved for in previous years , which positively impacted our 2010 operating income . the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in an increase in operating income of $ 3.0 million for 2011. our operating income increased 11 % in 2010 to $ 106.6 story_separator_special_tag the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in an increase in training system sales of $ 8.0 million for 2010. operating income for training systems was $ 39.0 million in 2012 and 2011. in 2011 and the first half of 2012 , we recorded revenues equal to costs on a ground combat training system in europe because we were working under a contract without a firm contract price or scope of work . in 2012 , we reached agreement with the customer on price and scope of work , resulting in additional profit margin this year because of this favorable change in estimate . an increase in operating income also came from increased sales of small arms training systems . offsetting these increases were lower operating profits on lower sales of air combat training systems , a ground combat training system in the far east and miles equipment . in addition , we incurred higher than previously expected costs in developing an instumented training system for the u.s. marine corps in 2012. the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in an increase in training systems operating income of $ 0.3 million for 2012. operating income for training systems increased 29 % to $ 39.0 million in 2011 compared to $ 30.2 million in 2010. the growth in operating income was primarily attributable to increased operating income on higher sales of air combat training systems to the u.s. military and to a customer in the far east , and improved margins on increased sales of miles equipment . the 2010 operating income for training systems was positively impacted by a bad debt recovery from a company through which we sold training systems products to the u.s. government . in 2009 the company had failed to pass on to us cash they collected from the government on our behalf . in 2010 , we were able to collect the entire amount plus attorney 's fees , costs and interest , for a total recovery of $ 4.2 million . we invested $ 3.4 million in 2011 and $ 3.2 million in 2010 in the development of new ground combat training technology for tactical vehicles , which limited our operating income in both years . the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in an increase in training systems operating income of $ 1.5 million for 2011. training systems operating income increased 62 % in 2010 to $ 30.2 million , from $ 18.6 million in 2009. higher sales and improved profit margins from the ground combat training system in the far east mentioned above added to operating income in 2010 , as well as higher sales and improved profit margins from miles equipment . in addition , in 2009 we had established a $ 3.1 million allowance for doubtful accounts receivable related to a company through which we sold training systems products to the u.s. government , because they failed to pass on to us cash they collected from the government on our behalf . as mentioned , in 2010 we were able to collect the entire amount plus attorney 's fees , costs and interest , for a total recovery in 2010 of $ 4.2 million . these improvements were partially offset by lower operating income from lower sales of air combat training systems to customers in the far east where we had realized higher profit margins in 2009. in addition , in the fourth quarter of 2010 , we invested $ 3.2 million in the development of new ground combat training technology for tactical vehicles , which limited growth in our operating income in 2010. the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar , resulted in an increase in training systems operating income of $ 1.9 million for 2010 . 32 communications communications sales increased slightly to $ 41.6 million in 2012 from $ 41.4 million in 2011. sales of personnel locator systems and power amplifiers decreased in 2012 , while sales of data links increased . communications sales decreased 33 % to $ 41.4 million in 2011 from $ 61.8 million in 2010. sales of data links and power amplifiers decreased in 2011 , while sales of personnel locater systems were relatively consistent between the years . communications sales grew 39 % in 2010 to $ 61.8 million from $ 44.4 million in 2009. sales were higher in 2010 from all three major product lines , including personnel locator systems , data links and power amplifiers . we began work on a new contract in 2010 called video scout and produced spare parts for the joint-stars system we delivered years ago , which contributed to the increase in data links sales . operating income from communications decreased 66 % to $ 2.2 million in 2012 from $ 6.4 million in 2011. higher data link sales added to operating income , however , this was more than offset by higher than expected costs of developing new data link technology in 2012. lower sales of personnel locator systems and power amplifiers also contributed to the decrease . operating income from communications increased 39 % to $ 6.4 million in 2011 from $ 4.6 million in 2010. in 2010 we realized operating losses of $ 6.0 million from a new mini-common data link ( mini-cdl ) product and video scout product as a result of development costs incurred in 2010 , compared to profitable sales of these products in 2011. communications operating income increased to $ 4.6 million in 2010 , compared to $ 2.4 million in 2009 , a 92 % increase . in 2010 , higher operating income on higher sales from all three product lines was partially offset by development costs for new products , including video scout and
