Description: Alliant Techsystems Inc., an aerospace and defense company, was incorporated in Delaware in 1990 when Honeywell Inc. spun off its defense businesses. Following a 2008 realignment, it now conducts business in four segments: ATK Armament Systems, ATK Launch Systems, ATK Mission Systems and ATK Space Systems. ATK Armament Systems develops and produces military ammunition and gun systems; commercial products and propellant and energetic materials, and operates the U.S. Army ammunition plants in Independence, Missouri and Radford, Virginia. ATK Launch Systems produces rocket motor systems for launch vehicles, conventional and strategic missiles and missile defense interceptors. ATK Mission Systems originally operated in four areas: Weapon Systems, which develops and produces advanced missile systems, precision-guided munitions, force protection systems, speed-of-light weapons, soldier weapon systems, barrier systems, and large-caliber ammunition for the U.S. government and its allies; Aerospace Systems, which is a contractor on a variety of electronic warfare and aircraft integration programs; Space Systems, which supplies spacecraft, components and sub-systems to government customers, satellite prime contractors and other businesses and Technical Services, which provides scientific, engineering and technical assistance; contract research and development services; and testing to contractors and government agencies. Space Systems now functions as its own operating segment. More
