Guiding weapons to targets - precisely

Northrop Grumman IT performs systems integration and provides technical engineering services to support the development and maintenance of major DoD weapons systems. The age of precision weapons is here. Northrop Grumman IT has played a large role in assuring this precision - through our ability to apply and integrate both processed and platform-generated data for combat systems that put weapons directly on their targets.

For more than 25 years, we have been a leading provider of warfare systems engineering and test and evaluation services. Our services have supported the AEGIS program since 1975. We are a major contractor to NAVSEA for combat systems engineering and life cycle support. Today, we offer proven capabilities to meet the requirements of current and emerging weapons systems, including new shipbuilding programs, network-centric sensor-to-shooter initiatives, stand-off weapons, coastal defense, littoral warfare, and remote-controlled unmanned platforms.

Our work covers the full scope of weapons and combat systems requirements - from development and integration to deployment and commissioning to operations and maintenance:

• Engineering services, life-cycle support, and total independent validation and verification for the AEGIS program
• Acquisition support for NAVSEA programs
• Surface/submarine combat systems engineering
• Full service partner for next-generation destroyers and U.S. Coast Guard deepwater systems
• Commissioning support to LHD class amphibious ships
• Test and evaluation services for numerous Navy programs
• Mission planning systems
• Missile targeting
• ICBM system modernization independent validation and verification
• Weapon system ground segment data processing
• Command and control
• Naval range systems
• Systems engineering and integration
• Software modeling and simulation
• Engineering services to support undersea acoustic ranges

• U.S. Navy - systems engineering, test and evaluation, data link test set, and training for the AEGIS program
• U.S. Air Force - mission planning for the B-2
• U.S. Air Force - contingency air mobility planning system for the U.S. Transportation Command
• U.S. Air Force - nuclear safety cross check analysis and performance acceptance test and evaluation for Strategic and Theatre Missile programs
• U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy - advanced technology concept development
• U.S. Navy - engineering services to support undersea acoustic ranges
• U.S. Navy - full-scale submarine simulation/stimulation for lab development of Submarine Combat Control Systems and for fleet training
