Raytheon booked $50 million this month in new contract awards related to its electronic warfare (EW) business.

Raytheon's industry-leading electronic warfare portfolio includes airborne and shipboard jammers, towed decoys and radar warning receivers in use on strategic and tactical aircraft, helicopters and surface ships of the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy and international customers.

"As we look to the future, the electronic warfare market will evolve to encompass intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance data collection and electronic attack, and Raytheon is well positioned to participate at the forefront of these trends."
