Raytheon’s Advanced Technology team incubates capabilities that fuel the future of defense. Together with leading research and development organizations, defense agencies, peers and partners, we are creating ways to advance how tomorrow’s battles are fought and won. With a focus on cutting-edge components to full-scale solutions, early ideation to production readiness, seabed to space, we shape the systems and solutions that advance defense.
“It is not technology for technology’s sake. It’s technology to get capability to the field, and I think we’re all very passionate about that.”

“It became obvious that if we tried to build the (SPY-6) radar out of the premier semiconductor at the time, which was gallium arsenide, it was going to be large and expensive because you would have to put together many of these little power amplifier chips to get to the power level you wanted.”

Raytheon Advanced Technology senior engineering fellow
“It created a category of weapons capability that didn’t exist before.”
