Other printed elements include complex electronic circuits Engineers at the Raytheon University of Massachusetts Lowell Research Institute are developing ways to print such circuits,

The Zumwalt also boasts what Raytheon calls a Total Ship Computing Environment, which allows it to be controlled from any of a couple dozen consoles around the ship.

#Raytheon acquires Tucson-based Sensintel Inc. Raytheon has acquired privately-held Sensintel, Inc.,a leading provider of unmanned aircraft systems solutions to the intelligence and special operations markets.

with approximately 50 employees, Sensintel will become part of Raytheon Company Missile Systems business. The transaction is expected not to materially impact Raytheon sales or earnings in the first quarter or full year 2015.

Terms of the agreement were disclosed not. ensintel expertise in unmanned aircraft systems solutions makes it a natural fit with Raytheon Advanced Missile Systems product line,

said Dr. Taylor W. Lawrence, Raytheon Missile Systems president. he acquisition of Sensintel enhances the growth prospects of our UAS business

and the advanced capabilities we can offer our customers. Sensintel brings additional strong talent, technology

and relationships with the Special Operations Command, Office of Naval Research and U s. Air force Research Laboratory to Raytheon and its customers.

Meanwhile, Raytheon has 3d parts on its missiles, while makers of drones are increasingly using them.
