Defining Possible

Welcome to the technology of tomorrow

At Northrop Grumman, we pioneer technologies and break new boundaries to protect and advance humanity as we know it. From deep sea to outer space to cyber space, we are defining possible at the edge of every frontier.

A Pioneering Vision for the Future

Our teams are exploring burgeoning research areas and creating revolutionary technology that will not only power the mission but also connect, advance and protect the U.S. and its allies. No matter what the future holds, the greater the problem, the more prepared we are to help solve it.

Technology Makes the Impossible Possible

Our engineers aren't satisfied with the status quo. They push the boundaries of physics and stretch the limits of what technology can achieve. As leaders in the digital transformation of aerospace and defense, we make the most of collaborative digital tools and model-based systems engineering. We're pushing emerging technology out of the lab and into the real world, providing unprecedented outcomes for our customers.
