Craig, thanks for the link. From Litton's web page,
<<< Litton, founded in 1953 as a small electronics company, has evolved into a $4.2 billion company focused in defense and commercial electronics, information technology and shipbuilding. Litton is a leader in high technology world markets for navigation, guidance and control, electronic warfare and command, control and communications systems and information technology. It is a primary builder of large
multi-mission surface combatant ships for the U.S. Navy and a major provider of overhaul, repair, modernization, ship design and engineering services. Principal operations are located throughout the U.S. and in Germany, Canada and Italy. As of the end of our fiscal year, the work force was approximately 31,500 employees. >>>>
My impression of Litton is that it provides high tech solution to the military. One example is it packages hardware/software together to allow military personnel to run 'war games'. In a real combat situation, these 'war games' could become real 'command and control' executing in real time. If nothing else, Litton has 4.2 billion in sales and Ancor should be happy to rub shoulders with them.<g>
