ALL DOMAINS.
E V ERY DAY, somewhere around the world, a nation’s security is threatened, the freedom of a people is
challenged, or the safety of a community is put at risk from natural disaster. No nation can be assured it will be
spared. No matter where such dangers arise, America responds, working with our allies, because it’s in our national
character to do so. America relies on its military forces to answer these challenges, and our military forces rely on

PROTECTED.
In an era of heightened terrorist threats, countries struggle to protect their national borders. However, the threats a
nation faces don’t just arise at the border. Natural and catastrophic emergencies require a nation’s rapid assessment
and response. DRS provides world-class integrated, communications and networks for supporting security, relief,
and recovery missions; border and perimeter security solutions to enhance safekeeping forces; and fuel and water
distribution and management systems and power generation equipment to sustain any force, in any condition.

ENGAGED.
Commanders engaged in naval warfare and other maritime operations make critical decisions by the minute that rely
on timely, accurate, and reliable information. This information is conveyed through ship sensors, weapons, and
support systems that rely on DRS solutions to achieve mission success. DRS is committed to providing advanced
technologies and life-cycle support in command, control, communications, target acquisition, ship propulsion, and
undersea warfare to ensure that forces are fully ready and capable to carry out their mission.

broadband communications with shore stations and cooperating units.
The demanding undersea battlespace presents unique mission challenges that our forces must overcome to navigate
and operate their undersea weapon system effectively and silently. The effectiveness of America’s forces as they
operate aboard current and transformational platforms is critical to ensuring our dominant superiority in undersea
warfare. DRS engineers and manufactures the most advanced power conversion, control, and propulsion systems

America’s port cities and vast coastal borders are among the nation’s greatest economic strengths—hubs for
culture, transportation, and commerce. These areas also represent potential targets that are both very attractive to
potential attackers and extremely difficult to defend because of their size, number, and volume of activity. Protecting
these vital assets, responding to threats and hazards, and securing coastal borders, presents many difficult challenges
for today’s military and first responders. DRS has the experience and expertise in the areas of target acquisition,
manned and unmanned surveillance and reconnaissance, and radar and sonar systems to ensure that every mission
