Northrop Grumman Mission Systems BWI Location, Maryland

This is one of the principal engineering locations for the Mission Systems division of Northrop Grumman, developing radar and other surveillance and sensing systems for the US military. The division is one of four principal divisions of the company, and is headquartered a mile north of this plant. Mission Systems has its roots in World War II aircraft radar developed by Westinghouse, which evolved into Westinghouse’s Defense and Electronics Center, located here, which was acquired by Northrop Grumman, in 1996. The plant is located at the end of the runway of Baltimore Washington Airport, and has some remote radar test ranges connected to it nearby.
