HUNTSVILLE, Ala. - Raytheon announced the completion of a 26,000-sq-ft expansion of its missile integration facility in Huntsville, Alabama, supported by a $115 million investment. The project increases the site’s integration and delivery capacity by more than 50%.

The Redstone facility focuses on the integration and production of advanced missile systems, including nine variants of the Standard Missile family. The expansion improves manufacturing space and system integration processes, allowing higher throughput and faster delivery of critical munitions.

Increased production capacity will support agreements with the U.S. to accelerate the manufacturing procured systems. Work connected to these programs will be shared among Raytheon sites in Huntsville, Ala.; Tucson, Ariz.; and Andover, Mass. to meet growing demand.
