<strong>Technology</strong> Day<br />

The First Annual <strong>Raytheon</strong><br />

Building Relationships with the U.S. Air Force<br />

The first annual <strong>Raytheon</strong> <strong>Technology</strong><br />

Day held recently in Dayton, Ohio, at the<br />

Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) on Nov. 12,<br />

2003, provided an open forum for<br />

exchanging ideas and ensuring that our<br />

future initiatives fully support the strategies<br />

of our customers.<br />

More than 250 customers from AFRL and<br />

the Aeronautical Systems Center (ASC)<br />

attended the event, among them: Major<br />

General Nielsen (AFRL Commander), all<br />

28<br />

ARFL division chiefs and their technical<br />

advisors, ASC SPO directors and their chief<br />

engineers from many <strong>Raytheon</strong> programs<br />

including F-15, F-16, F-117, J-UCAS, U-2,<br />

EW, Predator and Global Hawk.<br />

Customers were extremely impressed<br />

with the quality of the event. The forum<br />

provided an opportunity for customers<br />

to learn about future applications of<br />

<strong>Raytheon</strong>’s technology to provide solutions<br />

for the Air Force.<br />

“Our first <strong>Technology</strong> Day was<br />

a great event and we look forward<br />

to many more successes,<br />

which will help us build<br />

<strong>Raytheon</strong>’s reputation as a<br />

customer-focused and technology<br />

leader in the industry.<br />

This event has helped build<br />

stronger relationships between<br />

our technology leaders and our<br />

Air Force customers.”<br />

Peter Pao, <strong>Raytheon</strong> corporate<br />

vice president of technology<br />

The agenda included presentations on Intelligence<br />

Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), Precision<br />

Engagement (PE), RF Systems, Electro-Optics/IR,<br />

Electronic Warfare (EW), Mission Integration and System Enablers. An exhibit room with interactive<br />

demonstrations provided an excellent opportunity for customer interaction and discussion.<br />

<strong>Technology</strong> Day was truly a One Company event with<br />

participation from each of our government and<br />

defense businesses. Nick Uros, Space and Airborne<br />

Systems technology director, and his team (pictured<br />

Cloud) sponsored and lead the event. The team<br />
