How does flexibility reshape the battlefield?
Composable weapons and software-defined apertures are helping Raytheon’s Advanced Technology team answer the call for defense systems that are delivered to the field faster, smarter and built to stay ahead on a battlefield reshaped by hypersonic weapons and swarms of drones. In this video, Colin Whelan, president of Advanced Technology at Raytheon, explains how his team’s approach can keep the U.S. and allied militaries ready to face any threat.

“We’re building flexible, software-defined systems from reusable building blocks – getting capability to the field faster and keeping it relevant for 20 to 25 years. By composing hardware and unlocking new features with software, we can adapt to the threat and the environment in real time.”
