Raytheon Company

Raytheon Company Surveillance And Network Systems Division, a division of Raytheon Company and subsidiary of RTX Corporation (formerly Raytheon Technologies), is a manufacturer of cryptographic devices and secure communication equipment that operates as a prime contractor (94% of recent awards) on full-and-open federal defense procurements with no set-aside posture. The division is headquartered in El Segundo, California and delivers NSA-approved cryptographic solutions, tactical secure units, and communications security equipment to the Department of Defense across multiple classification levels from unclassified through Top Secret.

The division's customer footprint is dominated by two defense agencies accounting for 83% of recent award volume. The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command leads by potential value at $1.18 billion across 26 awards, while the Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command anchors volume at 31 awards valued at $187.6 million combined potential value. Both agencies represent sustained, recurring procurement demand through established contract vehicles. A distant third tier includes the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center (5 awards), the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (3 awards, $1.1 million), and smaller work across 13 additional federal agencies including the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Energy, and Federal Emergency Management Agency.

The division holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery-Indefinite Quantity contract with the Air Education and Training Command called the Flexible Information Assurance Acquisition Tool (FIA2T), valued at $241.7 million with performance running through September 2027. This vehicle is the division's dominant work source: 27 task orders under the parent IDC N0003916D0075 carry $51.3 million in combined potential value, while FIA2T itself generated 7 task orders totaling $49.9 million. Raytheon also places work under IDC FA830715D0001 (6 task orders, $29.9 million), IDC FA830720D0002 (5 task orders, $947 thousand), and IDC FA830723DB006 (5 task orders, $15.4 million), all Air Force vehicles. Representative prime work includes a $41.9 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order for the KG-3XA Cryptographic Modernization Effort under FIA2T awarded June 2022 (completion February 2028); a $3.38 million firm fixed-price delivery order from Air Education and Training Command for Top Secret operational Space Gryphon units awarded September 2025; a $6.4 million delivery order from Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for LLC 7M secure cryptographic units awarded September 2025; and a $5.6 million delivery order from Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for LLC 7M Production Unit for Korea issued July 2024. Smaller routine work includes cryptographic card purchases, extended warranties, and repair services across both customer agencies.

The division competes predominantly on full-and-open defense-classified solicitations. Award category concentration centers on radio and television broadcasting and wireless communications equipment manufacturing (42 awards), other communications equipment manufacturing (11 awards), and communication equipment repair and maintenance (7 awards). PSC coding mirrors this: communications security equipment and components dominate (40 awards), followed by other cryptologic equipment and components (11 awards). Combined potential value across all 81 recent awards totals $1.38 billion, with obligated dollars at $176.2 million (13% of ceiling value), reflecting the long-term, staged-delivery nature of cryptographic development and production programs. Nine awards carrying $62 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing near-term recompete exposure in the cryptographic modernization segment.

In its subcontractor role, the division supplies KG-350 cryptographic units and materials to Bowhead Total Enterprise Solutions on four documented sub-awards (June 2023 through January 2025), supporting civilian agency information assurance programs. The division also identified Benchmark Electronics Manufacturing Solutions as a subcontractor on a $1.54 million Naval Sea Systems Command KIV-7MT decryption unit contract (September 2021 through November 2025) for electromechanical assembly work, and OSI Electronics, Inc. as a subcontractor on a $5.6 million LLC 7M Production Unit for Korea delivery order for assembly and spare parts production. Raytheon's role across these relationships is as prime contractor or primary equipment manufacturer; subcontractors handle component assembly, manufacturing, and logistics support rather than system integration or design leadership.
