Lockheed Martin Aerospace Electronic Systems

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lockheed Martin Aerospace Electronic Systems was a division of Lockheed Martin. Following a strategic review of Lockheed's businesses in 1999 the division was identified as a candidate for disposal. BAE Systems agreed to acquire the group in July and completed its acquisition of AES on 27 November 2000.[1][2]

[edit] Organisation

The group encompassed Sanders Associates, Fairchild Systems and Lockheed Martin Space Electronics & Communications.

Following the BAE acquisition AES was renamed BAE SYSTEMS Information and Electronic Systems Integration. Following an internal reorganisation the division became BAE Systems Electronics and Integrated Solutions.
