Homeland Security
The threat of terrorist attack in the United States brings into vivid focus the need to harness technology
to Detect threats, Protect against and Respond to them. Raytheon has proven expertise in emergency management
systems, advanced electronics and IT systems that provide 21st -century solutions to tracking, monitoring and
identifying potential threats, and protecting our communities. In addition, Raytheon technology can strengthen
public safety networks, and enhance communities' first response and emergency management capabilities through
planning and training, so that response is efficient and effective.
"Raytheon is principally known as a defense contractor," said company Chairman and CEO William H. Swanson.
"What we bring to the civil sector is a natural migration of our defense capabilities that contribute to the
safety and security of people and communities."
Intelligence, Surveillance, & Reconnaisance
Raytheon's innovative sensing, processing, and dissemination technologies effectively compress the information gap
from hours to minutes. Raytheon ISR programs cover the full spectrum of information management, providing
the ability to task, collect, process, exploit, and disseminate national and tactical target data. These
abilities are crucial for warfighters to achieve information dominance throughout the entire battlespace.
Our ISR technologies also aid federal and commercial endeavors such as law enforcement, security, oil spill
response, and search and rescue. In space, our programs include the Optical Telescope Assembly, Fine Guidance
Sensors for the Hubble Space Telescope, and the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer the keystone
instrument for NASA's Earth Observing Systems. Follow the links for a more detailed look at our ISR technologies
in Network Centric Systems, Space and Airborne Systems,
and Intelligence and Information Systems businesses.
Missile Defense
More than any other company, Raytheon provides an extensive array of technologies and programs that are bringing
home the promise of missile defense. We are committed to helping the Missile Defense Agency, the organization
responsible for developing an operational Ballistic Missile Defense System, achieve its objectives. Follow the

Precision Strike
Raytheon products provide the warfighter with precise, highly accurate, all-weather sensor-to-shooter capability
in any battlefield situation. Precision Strike is the ability to locate, discern, and track objectives or
targets; to employ the best systems available; to assess results; and to reengage with decisive speed and
overwhelming operational tempo as required. The air-, sea-, and land-launched missiles produced by Raytheon
provide the best defense available against all types of threats as demonstrated by the success of the Paveway,
Tomahawk, and Patriot missiles during Desert Storm and other conflicts. Follow the link for a more detailed look
