Raytheon Space and Airborne Systems is a leader in the development of advanced sensor technology for radar and electro-optical targeting systems, electronic warfare equipment and classified programmes all designed to ensure the warfighter maintain their critical operational edge.
A world leader in fielding the most advanced active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar systems available for multiple platforms including F-15's, F/A-18's and the B-2 stealth bomber Raytheon's 21st century technologies are adding a new dimension to the demanding fighter environment. The new and revolutionary AESA radar system ensures unparalleled situational awareness along with incomparable detection, targeting, tracking and self protection capabilities.
Innovation in electro-optical and infrared technology has also resulted in Raytheon's Advanced targeting system - ATFLIR - which combines multiple capabilities into a single pod. Working seamlessly with other critical system from SAS, such as ALR- 67(V)3, ALR-69A, ALE-50, and PAWS Missile Warning, these all provide a full-spectrum of radar warning and own ship protection capabilities. For the warfighter, Raytheon's combined sensor and weapon technologies serve as a force multiplier for existing and future fighter systems, cutting costs, increasing capability and the speed of decision-making. Raytheon links sensors and weapons across the electro-magnetic spectrum to enable 24-hour operations in any weather with no limitations.
Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN), is an industry leader in defense and government electronics, space information technology, technical services, and business and special mission aircraft. With headquarters in Waltham, Mass., Raytheon employs 80,000 people worldwide.
