[10-19-10] Raytheon<\/strong> has received its first U.S. Department of Defense<\/strong> production order for next-generation Navy Multiband Terminals (NMT), following the completion of system development and field-testing, Raytheon announced Oct. 18.
\n    The initial $37.6 million production award is for 22 systems, consisting of 15 ship, five submarine and two shore terminals, along with other services and products. Raytheon said that with the procurement of terminals over a five-year production period, the program\u2019s value of system development and production could reach $1 billion.
\n    NMT will integrate its Extremely High Frequency\/Advanced Extremely High Frequency (EHF\/AEHF) capability with two-way military Ka- and X-band and the Global Broadcast Service.
\n    Raytheon Integrated Communications Systems Vice President Brian McKeon said the multi-banded ship, submarine and shore communications terminals can provide up to five times the bandwidth of legacy systems and have the potential to be selected by Army and Air Force users. \u201cNMT gives the Navy secure communications connectivity to the latest satellite constellations that users can absolutely depend on, in a smaller package, and at much lower cost. This success keeps the promise we made to our armed forces to develop, demonstrate and deliver a multi-banded, secure terminal utilizing the Advanced Extremely High Frequency waveform.\u201d
\n    NMT\u2019s potential to service other U.S. military branches come from the fact that the system is compatible with Wideband Global Satcom and backward-compatible with legacy satellite systems.
\n    Raytheon Network Centric Systems was awarded the NMT prototype development phase in August 2003 and was selected for the engineering development model phase in October 2007 over Harris Corp.<\/strong>, which unsuccessfully protested the award. <\/p>\n
