Boomerang sniper detection system was further deployed among U.S. Forces and was selected by the United Kingdom Army
as the best solution for soldier-worn sniper alert needs. The U.S. Navy awarded NCS a low-rate initial production (LRIP)
contract for the U.S. Navy Multi-band Terminal (NMT), a single satellite terminal for the U.S. Navy's next generation satellite
communications needs and designed for a wide variety of Navy ship and shore installations.
NCS has the following principal product lines:
Integrated Communications Systems (ICS)—ICS offers wireless, high-bandwidth and transformational communication
solutions for every DoD agency and many international customers. These solutions enable connectivity for Net-centric
Operations (NCO) and the Global Information Grid (GIG) and provide mission assurance to customers with satellite, point-
to-point and networked communications services that are effective on land, sea, undersea, air and space. Solutions include
MAINGATE, an interoperable battlefield communications platform that provides a broadband gateway between separate radio
systems; the EPLRS; the Secure Mobile Anti-Jam Reliable Tactical Terminal (SMART-T), a low-cost, extremely high frequency
(EHF) satellite terminal that provides robust, low probability-of-detection, jam-resistant, multi-channel communications in
support of the field commander; and the NMT.
Security and Transportation Solutions (STS)—STS develops, delivers and supports domestic and international defense, federal
and civil customers with integrated, networked, actionable command and control (C2) transportation and security systems.
STS is the leading provider of Air Traffic Management (ATM) solutions for the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
and the DoD with its Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS), and is a key provider of ATM solutions
internationally with its AutoTrac III product line and surveillance radars. STS also is continuing to develop advanced airspace
management capabilities with the FAA-certified Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), Japan's Multifunction Transport
Satellite-based Augmentation System (MSAS), and India's Geosynchronous Augmented Navigation System (GAGAN) to
improve airspace design flexibility and efficiency by removing route dependency on ground-based navigational aids. STS is
developing the Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS) for the DoD with initial capabilities under contract
for the U.S. Navy. STS is also a key provider of open-road tolling systems throughout the U.S. and internationally, the
Perimeter Intrusion Detection System (PIDS) at major metropolitan airports, and is deploying ClearView, a comprehensive
yet scalable security C2 capability for critical infrastructure protection.
Combat and Sensing Systems (CSS)—CSS provides integrated ground-based surveillance and target engagement solutions
designed to provide a significant advantage to the U.S. Army and Marine Corps warfighters. CSS develops advanced ground
sensor capabilities for the U.S. Army's Brigade Combat Team (BCT) Modernization program such as the Mast Mounted Sensor
(MMS) and the Multi-Function Radio Frequency System (MFRFS). CSS also developed the Active Protection System (APS)
capability which destroys rocket-propelled grenades or anti-tank missiles targeting combat vehicles. In addition, CSS provides
the Long Range Advanced Scout Surveillance System (LRAS3), a multi-sensor system which provides the ability to detect,
identify and geo-locate distant targets, and is now networked to enable multi-sensor improved accuracy and available in an
enhanced version for the U.S. Army. Other CSS products include the Integrated Target Acquisition System (ITAS) for the
tube-launched optically-tracked wireless-guided (TOW) missile which increases target detection, acquisition, recognition and
engagement ranges; the HTI 2nd Generation FLIR (Horizontal Technology Integration Forward Looking Infrared) systems
which provide the capability to detect, recognize, acquire, and engage targets at extended ranges; and, Thermal Weapon Sights
(TWS) for weapons serving individual and crews of soldiers. CSS also provides industry leading technologies in Virtual
Immersion close-quarters combat training in an exclusive collaboration with Motion Reality, Inc.
Advanced Programs (AP)—AP provides a broad range of imaging capabilities, including next-generation X-ray, visible,
infrared, and millimeter wave focal plane and scanning arrays for weapons, thermal imaging, earth remote sensing and
astronomy applications. AP also includes Raytheon BBN's advanced networking and cybersecurity technologies and
capabilities and products including Boomerang and TransTalk, a smartphone application that automatically translates speech
into another language. Raytheon BBN is the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency's largest supplier of Cooperative
Research and Development. AP also develops advanced concepts for urgent operational needs incorporating next-generation
communications, sensing, and command and control solutions.
Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I)—C4I includes Thales-Raytheon Systems, LLC (TRS
LLC) which is the U.S. operating subsidiary of the Thales-Raytheon joint venture (TRS). C4I is a leader in complex information
systems, command and control, communications systems including terrestrial, satellite and voice communications, as well as
long range and tactical short- to medium-range air defense radars and weapon locating radars. C4I solutions include the
