Raytheon Acquires Tucson-Based Sensintel, Inc.<br />

January 26, <strong>2015</strong><br />

TUCSON, AZ -- Located in Tucson with approximately 50 employees, Sensintel will become<br />

part of Raytheon Company's Missile Systems business. The transaction is not expected to<br />

materially impact Raytheon's sales or earnings in the first quarter or full year <strong>2015</strong>. Terms of the<br />

agreement were not disclosed.<br />

“Sensintel's expertise in unmanned aircraft systems solutions makes it a natural fit with<br />

Raytheon's Advanced Missile Systems product line,” said Dr. Taylor W. Lawrence, Raytheon<br />

Missile Systems president. “The acquisition of Sensintel enhances the growth prospects of our<br />

UAS business and the advanced capabilities we can offer our customers.”<br />

Sensintel brings additional strong talent, technology, and relationships with the Special<br />

Operations Command (SOCOM), Office of Naval Research and U.S. Air Force Research<br />

Laboratory to Raytheon and its customers. The company is a leader in expendable remote<br />

sensing and UAS engineering, serving both government and commercial customers by<br />

optimizing and integrating mission-specific sensors and sub-systems into manned and unmanned<br />

platforms. It also provides training, technical and operational support to military, scientific and<br />

commercial sectors.
