Targeting System; the Maverick precision strike missile; and the Griffin, a small lightweight missile that can be employed
from aircraft, UAVs, ships or ground launched against light targets.
Air and Missile Defense Systems (AMDS)—AMDS designs, develops, produces and supports air defense, and ballistic missile
defense interceptor systems. AMDS' primary customers are the MDA, the U.S. Navy and various international navies around
the world. The product line develops, manufactures, and supports the Standard Missile family of weapons with capabilities
ranging from anti-air warfare to ballistic missile defense. AMDS is responsible for the first line of ship-defense weapons,
including the Standard Missile-2 (SM-2) and the SM-6. AMDS is also responsible for multiple versions of the SM-3, which
are core elements of the MDA's Phased Adaptive Approach to global missile defense. AMDS builds and supports the EKV
as a sub-contractor to The Boeing Company, which is part of the U.S. ground-based midcourse defense system that defends
against ballistic missile attack. The product line is also involved in a number of advanced missile defense concepts that seek
to pace the evolving ballistic missile threat.
Naval and Area Mission Defense (NAMD)—NAMD offers a complete family of mission solutions for customers around the
world. The NAMD portfolio of products and services provides integrated layered mission protection capability for the navies
of more than 30 countries. NAMD provides highly effective layered ship defense across multiple platforms to counter the
anti-ship threats of today and tomorrow. NAMD leverages its proven capabilities to provide forward-operating base defense
for the U.S. Army, Air Force and Marine Corps. NAMD produces the Phalanx Close-In Weapon System (employed afloat
and ashore), the Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) and Launcher System, the SeaRAM system, and the Evolved Seasparrow/
Sparrow family of missiles for layered ship mission protection against air, subsurface and surface cruise / ballistic missile
threats. Additionally, NAMD continues to expand its commitment to international cooperative endeavors with strategic
international partners to evolve its products and technologies to encompass the full spectrum of threats, including the protection
of land bases and high-value infrastructure sites from terrorist threats.
Land Combat—Land Combat develops and provides precision missiles and projectiles to the U.S. Army and Marine Corps
and more than 40 allied nations. Land Combat's major programs are the tube-launched optically-tracked wireless-guided
(TOW) weapon system, a long-range precision anti-armor/anti-fortification/anti-amphibious-landing weapon system; Javelin,
a shoulder-fired fire-and-forget anti-tank weapon; and Excalibur, a GPS-guided artillery round designed to provide indirect
precision fire for ground forces.
Advanced Missile Systems (AMS)—AMS focuses on the development and early introduction of next-generation, end-to-end
system solutions that support the AWS, NAMD, AMDS and Land Combat product lines. AMS also pursues opportunities in
directed energy and adjacent markets, including the development of force protection solutions, non-kinetic weapons (offensive
and defensive), high-power microwave/millimeter technologies and applications, space applications, and counterterrorism
solutions.
Network Centric Systems (NCS)—NCS, headquartered in McKinney, Texas, leverages the capabilities of the network through
communications, sensors, and command and control systems, to develop and produce customer solutions for land combat
modernization, international and domestic Air Traffic Management (ATM) and other transportation systems, military and civil
communications, and homeland security. NCS key customers include the DoD, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) and other U.S. Government customers, as well as numerous international customers.
In 2012, following its continuing success in providing next-generation Navy Multiband Terminal (NMT) protected satellite
communications (SATCOM) systems to the U.S. Navy, NCS was selected by the U.S. Air Force as the alternative developer
of the Family of Advanced Beyond-line-of-sight Terminals (FAB-T). Also in 2012, the U.S. Navy moved the NMT SATCOM
system to full rate production, ordering additional terminals for ship and shore installation. The FAA awarded NCS the next
generation of Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) geosynchronous satellite payloads and extended NCS' position in
the domestic ATM space with a decision to deploy Raytheon's ATM systems up to 100 domestic airports. NCS was also
awarded a contract by the U.S. Army for the development and procurement of a longer range Multi-Function Radio Frequency
System (MFRFS) Ku-band Close Combat Tactical Radar sense and warn system for Forward Operating Bases following the
performance of Raytheon's shorter range Ka-band systems deployed in Afghanistan. Also in 2012, the Company acquired the
Government Solutions business of SafeNet, Inc., a privately-held company, increasing the Company's ability to provide
advanced encryption capabilities needed by government and industry customers to protect classified data. The acquired business
is headquartered in Torrance, California.
