Northrop Grumman’s approach to advancing Airborne Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR).
How Military Aircraft EO/IR Systems Save American Lives
A U.S. Air Force veteran and A-10 fighter pilot used electro-optical and infrared sensors (EO/IR) systems, which buys time in an air combat situation.
Small But Mighty: Magnetometers and the Future of Inertial Navigation
Tucked inside modern fighter jets and smart munitions, inertial navigation systems have a suite of sensors, including accelerometers that measure linear motion and gyroscopes that measure rotation - small but mighty instruments that measure magnetic fields.
Naval Control and Management Systems
The Integrated Platform Management Systems (IPMS), sometimes referred to as a Machinery Control System, is a sophisticated control system solution for naval vessels such as surface ships, submarines and, potentially, unmanned vehicles.
AN/AAQ-24(V) DIRCM (Directional Infrared Countermeasure)
The AN/AAQ-24(V) Directional Infrared Countermeasure (DIRCM) system is the only DIRCM system in production today that will protect aircraft from today's infrared guided missiles.
AQS-24B/C Minehunting System
Northrop Grumman has three decades of in-fleet airborne mine countermeasure experience with 27 systems fielded. The company was the first to field electro-optic mine identification, and developed the first long-range synthetic aperture sonar for mine warfare, the first mine warfare unmanned surface vessel (jointly with the Naval Undersea Warfare Center) and mine warfare unmanned underwater vehicles.
