Major programs include the F-35, C-130 and F-16; PAC-3, THAAD and HIMARS; Sikorsky Black Hawk and Seahawk helicopters; Aegis; and satellites, strategic missiles and Orion spacecraft.

Contract awards, appropriations, export controls, program performance and specialized suppliers shape revenue and execution.
