WASHINGTON -- Lyntris announced that it has completed qualification of a hardware assembly supporting Raytheon’s SPY-6 family of radars.

This qualification is part of the production ramp for SPY-6.

SPY-6 is the radar family that the U.S. Navy is fielding across its surface fleet.

The qualification is the result of a nearly two-year collaboration between Lyntris and Raytheon to strengthen supply chain resilience for this mission-critical hardware. Throughout the effort, the companies worked together to establish manufacturing processes, validate performance and qualify Lyntris as a source capable of supporting long-term program requirements.
