Lockheed Martin Rotary and Mission Systems

Lockheed Martin Rotary and Mission Systems (LM RMS), formerly known as Mission Systems and Sensors (LM MS2) and then Mission Systems & Training (LM MST), is a Lockheed Martin business segment, headquartered in Washington, DC. Until October 2008 MST was headquartered in Moorestown Township, New Jersey, a suburb of Philadelphia; Moorestown remains the largest site in the business unit and is where many of the unit's top executives have their offices. As of 2013, MST is one of Lockheed Martin's five operating units; prior to that it was a part of the now-defunct Electronic Systems sector. MST was formerly known as Maritime Systems and Sensors (MS2) and prior to that NESS (Naval Electronics and Surveillance Systems). Frank St. John is the current executive vice president of RMS.

Current major products of RMS include the Aegis combat system, the Mk41 Vertical Launching System, the Desert Hawk UAV, the AN/UYQ-70 display system, the AN/UYK-43 and AN/UYK-44 computers, AN/SPY-1 naval RADAR systems, AN/SQQ-89 SONAR system, P-3 Orion mission systems, and tactical avionics for the F-35 Lightning II and the F-16 Fighting Falcon.
