<strong>Issue</strong>d to <strong>Raytheon</strong><br />
At <strong>Raytheon</strong>, we encourage people<br />
to work on technological challenges<br />
that keep America strong and develop<br />
innovative commercial products. Part<br />
of that process is identifying and<br />
protecting our intellectual property.<br />
Once again, the U.S. Patent Office<br />
has recognized our engineers and<br />
technologists for their contributions<br />
in their fields of interest. We<br />
compliment our inventors who<br />
were awarded patents from<br />
September 2006 through January <strong>2007</strong>.<br />
