Northrop Grumman Company Description
Avast there! The acquisitions of Litton Industries, Newport News, and TRW made Northrop Grumman the world's #1 shipbuilder and the #3 military contractor (behind Lockheed Martin and Boeing). It operates through five sectors: Aerospace Systems (combining the former Integrated Systems and Space Technology segments), Electronic Systems (radar, navigation, and communications), Information Systems (combining the former Information Technology and Mission Systems segments), Shipbuilding (military/commercial ships, nuclear submarines, and aircraft carriers), and Technical Services (systems support and training and simulation). The US government is behind about 90% of Northrop Grumman's sales.
