Women represent about one-third of the STEM workforce in the U.S., according to the National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics. So how do we break down gender stereotypes to help close this gap? We can start by introducing girls to women who work in these fields. Amanda Varricchio, lead test engineer for Pratt & Whitney, talks about being the only woman in her college mechanical engineering program and shares how she is now helping students at her all-girls high school develop a passion for STEM and robotics. We believe that securing the future of aerospace and defense starts with fostering curiosity for lifelong learning. By partnering with leading organizations that promote STEM skills, innovation and diverse thinking, we connect with students to broaden possibilities and create a diverse, career-ready talent pipeline for the future workforce.

?? #NEWS: Raytheon has delivered the first AN/TPY-2 missile defense radar for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This is the first AN/TPY-2 radar with a complete Gallium Nitride (GaN) populated array in the system. The GaN technology is a key enabler in allowing the AN/TPY-2 radar to support the hypersonic mission and provides up to two times the sensitivity to increase range as well as expand surveillance capacity. “The latest AN/TPY-2 radar is now in a different class. With the help of funding from both the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the U.S. government, Raytheon made more than 50 enhancements to the radar including the introduction of GaN technology,” said Paul Ferraro, President of Air & Space Defense Systems for Raytheon. “These upgrades will help Saudi Arabia to better defend itself from missile threats and will additionally benefit the entire fleet with enhanced sensing capability.” Details: https://rtxcorp.co/4esH3Qe
