Space & Air Solutions is a capability area in Global Integrated Sensors that designs and enhances radar systems that provide situational awareness by detecting, identifying, classifying and tracking long-range activity in airspace and Earth orbital space. Programs include new and out-year growth opportunities, such as Space Fence and 3DELRR.

As the preeminent, trusted leader in large-aperture radars, Raytheon is partnering with the U.S. Air Force to establish the next generation of space surveillance capabilities with the Space Fence System. The Space Fence System will replace the Air Force’s Very High-Frequency Space Surveillance System, operational since 1961, with more accurate and timely position & characterization of orbiting objects and debris.
