BAE Systems, Raytheon team to provide intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance to U.S. Navy

SAN DIEGO. 4 April 2007. BAE Systems and Raytheon Company have teamed in pursuit of opportunities under the Distributed Common Ground System-Navy (DCGS-N) program. The system will share and disseminate intelligence data from a variety of network-centric sources.

The DCGS-N Enterprise Team, consisting of DCGS experts from BAE Systems and Raytheon, will design and demonstrate a Web-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and targeting capability to support naval operations and other U.S. government agencies, military services, and U.S. allies.

DCGS-N, in combination with the DCGS Integration Backbone, will provide the network-centric operations backbone for the U.S. Navy and for the actionable and timely distribution of ISR data, processes, and systems. An enterprise DCGS-N solution will help naval combatant commanders make better operational decisions in major combat operations and the global war on terrorism.
