- Description: Raytheon ("light of the gods") has taken a shine to being the #4 US defense contractor (after Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman). The company's electronics division makes missile systems (Patriot, Hawk, Tomahawk), radars, and reconnaissance, targeting, and navigation systems. Raytheon's Command, Control and Information Systems division makes radios, air traffic control systems and radars, and satellite communications systems. The company is trying to sell its Raytheon Aircraft unit, which makes turboprop aircraft and Beech and Hawker jets. Raytheon also offers commercial electronics products and services, but the US government (including foreign military sales) accounts for about 70% of sales.
