In Raytheon’s 49,000 square-foot Space Systems Operations facility in Tucson, Arizona, our team of technicians, engineers and operators develop, test and assemble parts for highly precise defensive weapons known as “kill vehicles” that track and defeat ballistic missiles in the vacuum of space – an environment the site was designed specifically to recreate. “We have 25 years of iterative experience and data from 50 successful space intercepts,” said Justin Jenia, vice president of Strike Initiatives at Raytheon. “What we learned, what we saw in these increasingly complex test scenarios has led to significant efficiencies and process improvements in our factory assembly and environmental controls.” To learn more about these capabilities visit our booth 301 at #SMDSymposium or visit: https://rtxcorp.co/3WS1Bvk

During the Valiant Shield 24 exercise, our Advanced Technology team, in partnership with the Land and Air Defense Systems and Naval Power teams, demonstrated a simulated complex missile engagement leveraging the US Army's Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensor and Integrated Air and Missile Defense Battle Command System, launching a US Navy Standard Missile-6. President of Advanced Technology, Colin Whelan, shared what this critical exercise meant for the future of defense. https://rtxcorp.co/4fzs48w

Raytheon’s Electronic Warfare Systems division successfully completed another critical development milestone in the prototype Advanced Electronic Warfare, or ADVEW, suite for the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. The developments in this solution ensure the Super Hornet - as well as other next generation platforms - maintain an operational electronic warfare advantage against advanced, ever-evolving threats today and in the future. “We are one step closer this week to delivering an integrated electronic support and electronic attack system that provides critical capability to our F/A-18E/F aircrew. This revolutionary upgrade will ensure the Super Hornet remains survivable and lethal in a high-end fight.” - Bryan Rosselli, President of Advanced Products & Solutions at Raytheon Learn more: https://rtxcorp.co/3Wpt1rh

Preparing U.S. Air Force bases to defend themselves will be critical to the success of future joint force operations. Active air base defense solutions such as AIM-9X, AMRAAM, and NASAMS can provide Air Force bases with the capacity to counter complex air and missile strikes in future conflicts.

Our GhostEye MR radar leverages commonality with the Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensor (LTAMDS) we are building for the U.S. Army. The sensors share a baseline of advanced technologies, including active electronically scanned array (AESA), which boosts detection, targeting and tracking. GhostEye MR’s radar array, shown here, is bolstered by military-grade gallium nitride (GaN), which strengthens the radar signal and enhances its sensitivity for longer range, higher resolution and increased capacity.
