and nine key successful flight tests on the Small Diameter Bomb II (SDB II™) program which is scheduled to enter low rate
production beginning in 2014. MS also delivered the first SM-3™ and Standard Missile-6 (SM-6) production missiles from
its recently opened state-of-the-art, all-up-round Standard Missile production facility in Huntsville, Alabama.
MS has the following principal product lines:
Air Warfare Systems (AWS)—AWS products and services enable the U.S. armed forces and international customers to attack,
suppress and destroy air and ground-based targets. Products include AMRAAM®, a state-of-the-art, highly dependable and
battle-proven air-to-air missile that also has a surface-to-air launch application; the Tomahawk cruise missile, an advanced
surface- or submarine-launched cruise missile with loitering and network communication capability; SDB II™, an air-to-
ground glide weapon designed to engage moving targets in adverse weather and through battlefield conditions; Joint Standoff
Weapon (JSOW), a family of air-to-ground weapons that employ an integrated GPS/inertial navigation system that guides the
weapon to the target; the Paveway family of laser- and GPS-guided smart bombs; the AIM-9X® Sidewinder short-range air-
to-air missile; the Miniature Air-Launched Decoy (MALD®); the High-Speed Anti-Radiation Missile (HARM™) and the
HARM™ Targeting System; the Maverick™ precision strike missile; and the Griffin®, a small lightweight missile that can
be employed from aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles (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, and for multiple versions of the SM-3™, which are core elements of
the MDA's Phased Adaptive Approach to global missile defense. AMDS, as a sub-contractor to The Boeing Company, builds
and supports the EKV, which is part of the U.S. ground-based midcourse defense system that defends against ballistic missile
attack. AMDS is also the U.S. design agent and partner with Raphael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. on the David’s Sling
missile defense system for Israel. 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. NAMD provides highly effective layered ship defense for the navies of more than 30 countries 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 (ESSM™) 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 Warfare Systems (LWS)—During 2013, MS combined its Land Combat and Sensor Systems operations to form LWS
in order to offer a complete sensor-to-effects capability for customers in the land domain. LWS develops and provides precision
missiles, munitions, advanced electro-optical (EO)/infrared (IR) sensors, and integrated solutions to the U.S. Army and Marine
Corps and more than 40 allied nations. LWS’ 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; Excalibur™, a GPS-guided artillery round designed to provide indirect
precision fire for ground forces; enhanced Long Range Advanced Scout Surveillance System (eLRAS3), a third-generation,
multi-sensor system which provides the ability to detect, identify and geo-locate distant targets; a family of light to heavy
Thermal Weapon Sights (TWS); and integrated system solutions for combat vehicle upgrade programs, including the U.S.
Marine Corps Light Armored Vehicle Anti-Tank (LAV-AT) modernization program.
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 LWS 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.
