HARLOW, England, March 7, 2011 - Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN) was selected to supply a radar system to

S-Band Primary Surveillance Radar with a Mode S Monopulse Secondary
Surveillance Radar, brings to 25 the number of systems that Raytheon UK is
delivering at NATS' sites throughout the U.K.

ensure our national radar network is performing for the optimum benefit of

David Hawken, NATS Engineering Service Delivery General Manager. "We look
forward to this site being included."

"RSS is a flagship programme for Raytheon UK," said Richard Daniel,
Raytheon UK Director, Defence and Programme Leadership. "The extension of the
contract further demonstrates Raytheon's ability to deliver turnkey radar
solutions worldwide."
