We may not always be visible, but Northrop Grumman's technology is all pervasive, as is our commitment to building strong European businesses to serve our customers for the long term.
Today, different thinking is needed to deliver the required defence and security effect. Northrop Grumman is at the forefront of providing that different thinking: from creating dynamic communications nodes in the sky, using lasers to defeat ground-to-air threats and putting leading innovative aircraft radar technologies into ground-based air defence systems and taking unmanned air systems to unparalleled levels with the world's first carrier-borne UCAV.
With our focus on cyber, unmanned systems, and logistics and modernisation, we meet the evolving capability requirements of our customers.
Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile (AARGM) is a supersonic, medium-range, air-launched tactical missile designed to engage and destroy enemy air defenses and time-critical, mobile targets. AARGM is integrated in the German and Italian Air Force’s Tornado Electronic Combat and Reconnaissance aircraft.
Northrop Grumman’s next generation AARGM Extended Range (AARGM-ER) program, for the U.S. Navy, is building upon AARGM, and currently in production.
A customer with complex and sensitive data and information requirements required a mission partner who would quickly understand the context, deliver and sustain a portfolio of challenging technology projects at scale and pace and support the customer through an ambitious digital transformation programme.
Northrop Grumman’s experience and excellence in Agile software development, DevSecOps, data science and our highly collaborative approach continues to deliver results.
Making the World's Oceans Smaller: Based on the proven Global Hawk UAS, Triton's autonomous operations are supported by land-based command and control mission planners and sensor operators.
Triton will be equipped with a unique and robust mission sensor suite that provides 360-degree coverage on all sensors, providing unprecedented maritime domain awareness.
More than any aircraft that has gone before, the game-changing F-35 Lightning II is designed to be a node in the combat environment. The halo of connectivity that it provides ensures its ISTAR collector, strike, and ground support capabilities are second to none.
As a principal partner for the F-35 not only do we provide much of the aircraft’s situational awareness, but also through our provision of the aircraft’s communications and battlespace networks capability, no-one is better placed to integrate F-35 into the battlespace.

Northrop Grumman's major programmes supporting NATO include NATO AGS, the NATO Cyber Incident Response Capability and the NATO Command & Control Information System.
Northrop Grumman’s Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS) connects sensors and effectors never designed to work together into one command and control system.
The Polish government selected IBCS to serve as the centerpiece for their WISLA medium range air and missile defense program.
IBCS will provide transformational, leap-ahead capabilities for Poland’s air and missile defense, while enhancing interoperability with Allies and NATO.
Forward Area Air Defense Command and Control (FAAD C2) system is fielded in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, creating air and missile defense interoperability amongst the Baltic states, NATO and U.S. forces.
FAAD C2 provides command and control for their collective short range air defense (SHORAD) systems to conduct counter unmanned aerial systems (C-UAS) and SHORAD missions.
