Integrated Defense Systems
Dan Smith, President

Integrated Defense Systems (IDS), with 2006 sales of $4.2 billion, is a leading provider of integrated joint battlespace and homeland security solutions.

IDS’ largest single program is the Zumwalt Class Destroyer. Raytheon serves as the national team integrator for the ship, integrating Zumwalt’s sensing; command, control, communications and intelligence; and effects capabilities with Mission Support.

Raytheon has successfully designed and proven key technologies for Zumwalt. The Zumwalt destroyer will carry Raytheon-designed high-tech sonar, radar, computing and communications systems. The Raytheon Total Ship Computing Environment (TSCE) is the foundation of the Navy’s Family of Ships strategy and will be implemented to improve the capability of the U.S. Navy fleet. TSCE is reflected in the Ship Mission Center, the “nerve center” of Zumwalt.

Raytheon IDS is also providing mission solutions for a multilayered Ballistic Missile Defense System, integrating surveillance, intelligence and missile defense solutions to protect the U.S., deployed forces, friends and allies. Critical Raytheon capabilities include discrimination solutions and X-Band radar technologies.
