Northrop Grumman Demonstrates Critical Capabilities in Indo-Pacific Region Exercises

FALLS CHURCH, Va., June 18. Northrop Grumman Corporation collaborated with the US military on nine separate experiments to improve operational readiness in the Indo-Pacific region. These experiments took place during biennial military exercises conducted by US Indo-Pacific Command focusing on joint training in a multi-domain environment.

  • Capabilities enabled by Northrop Grumman technologies allowed the Joint Force to practice real-world efficiency in detecting, locating, tracking and engaging adversarial threats at sea, in the air, on land and in cyberspace.
  • Some of the Northrop Grumman-built platforms that participated in the exercise include the B-2 Spirit, E-2D Advanced Hawkeye, Ground/Air Task-Oriented Radar (AN/TPS-80 G/ATOR), Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS) and Maritime Targeting Cell (MTC).
  • Participation in field training exercises enabled warfighters to leverage and demonstrate innovative military capabilities and provided an opportunity for Northrop Grumman to gain customer feedback and valuable real-world insight, potentially leading to improved solutions.
