The right choice.
READY. AAAM. FIRE.
Changing global political realities demand that future weapons systems be not only technologically superior but fiscally responsible. The team of General Dynamics Air Defense Systems Division and Westinghouse Electronic Systems Group is currently developing an Advanced Air-to-Air Missile (AAAM) that meets both of these obligations.
Highly accurate dual-mode guidance plus advanced avionics and propulsion permit high altitude intercepts, high fly-out velocity, launch and maneuver capabilities, and multiple, simultaneous, all-weather engagements, day or night, to effectively counter fighters, bombers, stand-off jammers and cruise missiles. And because they're lighter and smaller, naval aviators can carry more of these highly flexible missiles into battle.
On the fiscal side, AAAM has already undergone extensive, comprehensive testing which helps reduce nsks and control production costs. And it has been engineered to accept advancing technologies as they come on board, making AAAM even more cost effective for the long term.
AAAM. Technologically superior. Fiscally responsible. Ready for the 21st century.

A Strong Company For A Strong Country
SCIENCE SCOPE
The U.S. Navy will be better able to train helicopter pilots for aerial minesweeping. thanks to a new one-of-a-kind minesweeping simulator for the MH-53E. Developed by Hughes Aircraft Company, this simulator helps pilots master a mission that requires extreme concentration and very demanding flying. . . low-level, over water, while towing a minesweeping sled in 50 to 100 foot swells. This Operational Flight Trainer (OFT) incorporates significant advances in software technology, miniaturization, and complex visual displays to create extraordinary hands-on realism. It will help the Navy save a great deal of money in training that, until recently, technology could not simulate.
Vital to the defense of coalition forces in Operation Desert Storm were two Hughes missiles, the Maverick and the TOW. The U.S. Air Force fired approximately 100 Maverick missiles per day, while Saudi forces relied heavily on TOW missiles to clear Khafji of invading Iraqi troops, destroying 46 armored vehicles. TOWs were also fired from Marine Corps Cobra helicopters during the Khafji battle, helping destroy 20 T-55 Iraqi tanks and armored personnel carriers. The Mavericks and TOWs were two of 55 different Hughes systems deployed to the Persian Gulf during Operation Desert Storm.
The U.S. Army may soon have improved nighttime visibility and target detection capability, in battle and in bad weather, as a result of an infrared sensor array developed by Hughes. This second- generation focal plane array provides an infrared image with higher resolution and enhanced thermal sensitivity. It contains a detector chip bearing thousands of heat-sensitive detecting elements. Developed initially for the Army’s Headstart Project, these arrays will eventually be common units for military sensors in systems from Army tanks to rescue helicopters.
The first transfer of missile technology between Hughes and Japan has been achieved, as 32 Hydra- 70 rocket launchers have rolled off an assembly line in Japan. These production units will be mounted on the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Forces’ AH-IS Cobra helicopter fleet. Hughes developed the launchers and delivered the initial 75 to Japan. The launchers are the first products to come from Hughes’ 1988 manufacturing agreement with Minebea Ltd. of Tokyo.
PC boards and hybrids can now be electronically trimmed and configured, thanks to a new family of nonvolatile, serially programmable (NSP) integrated circuits developed by Hughes. These NSP circuits enable designers to electronically calibrate PC boards and hybrids with test stations and computers. This automated procedure is a tremendous advantage over mechanical methods, which are less reliable and often difficult to perform. Presently, the new Hughes NSP family consists of nine types of devices. They all feature low-power consumption and redundant circuit techniques to ensure reliable operation and long life.

OinER-THE-HORIZON: LCA6 REVOLUTIONIZES AMPHIBIOUS WARIARE
After 17 years of comprehensive design and development, Textron Marine Systems delivered the first Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC) to the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps
amphibious warfare team in 1984.
A revolutionary concept, the LCAC opened up 70 percent of the world’s beaches to amphibious operations, enabling our naval forces to project power ashore from over-the-horizon at speeds never thought possible in areas once considered inaccessible.
But there’s more. In less than a decade, the LCAC has changed the face of battle, rearranged the amphibious operations area (AOA) and looks promising as a joint logistics over the shore craft, as a patrol boat, antiaircraft picket boat, mine warfare craft, forward arming and refueling point, and med-evac vehicle.
As designers/builders of the first LCAC and only U.S. developer of air cushion vehicles, we remain out front in this revolutionary technology.

WHAT TO WEAR TO A DOGFIGHT.
F/A-18. The Hornets were loaded for air-to-air and air-to-ground combat—two thousand pound bombs plus air-to-air missiles. Not exactly what you'd choose to take into a dogfight.
But on their first strike mission of Desert Storm, these Hornets encountered two MiGs approaching, nose on, supersonic. No sooner were the enemy fighters sighted than the F/A-18s, with bombs still on, knocked them out of the sky. The Hornets then resumed their mission, scoring a bull's-eye against their ground target too.
This engagement has been called a first in the history of modern air combat. It boldly demonstrated the strike fighter concept and proved to the world that picking a fight with America's Hornet is a dangerous game.

THE T-45. For a trainer, this jet has a very impressive family tree. Its makers are the same team responsible for America's top frontline fighters, the F/A-18, the AV-8B and the F-15. So it's no surprise the T-45 flies like a fighter-quick to respond and reliable in the rough spots.
It's part of a training system integrating everything from electronic classrooms for academic instruction to flight simulators and logistics systems for maintenance.
The most sophisticated system of its kind, the T-45 is the Navy's newest trainer-and the place where its aces are born.

US Advisors at the Hue office of the Military Assistance Command Vietnam (MACV) repelled an attack and called for backup. In response, A Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Marines and G Company, 2nd Battalion, 5th Marinesfrom nearby Phu Bai quickly fought their way to the beleaguered MACV compound. The battle then escalated, and after more than a week of brutal combat, the U.S. Marines regained that part of Hue on the south bank of the Perfume River. The 1st Battalion, 5th Marines and South Vietnamese troops then launched a counterattack inside the Citadel, a walled part of the city on the north bank. Savage house-to-house fighting ensued for many more days, and by late February the last Communist troops were defeated and driven out of Hue.

LIMITED OBJECTIVE WARFARE IS HERE TODAY.
SO IS SLAM.
SLAM, America’s Standoff Land Attack Missile, is tailor-made for deployment in contingency and limited objective warfare. And, as demonstrated, it’s ready now.
Currently in production at McDonnell Douglas Missile Systems Company (MDMSC), SLAM is a direct descendant of the successful Harpoon missile. It is produced on the same production line and supported by the existing Harpoon logistics system. This means known costs, known performance, and known reliability.
SLAM’s long standoff range ensures pilot and aircraft survivability With man-in-the-loop guidance, the system assures target discrimination and precise aimpoint selection. SLAM, with its pinpoint accuracy is designed for surgical strike missions which demand high effectiveness and low collateral damage. And it delivers under day/night and adverse weather conditions.
For standoff strike capability now and in the future, SLAM is the right weapon. And it’s working now.
