Raytheon to join air show

JAKARTA (JP): Raytheon International, a major international
aviation and defense electronics company, will participate in the
Indonesia Air Show 1996 on June 22 to June 30.

Advanced air traffic control systems, radar and satellite-
based wide-area surveillance systems, state-of-the-art global
positioning systems and some of the world's most sophisticated
air defense missiles are just a few of the leading-edge products
that will be exhibited by Raytheon.

The Massachusetts-based firm also plans to feature its Joint
Primary Aircraft Training System at the show, an aircraft which
will be the major training facility for the air forces of Britain
and the United States.

Other defense equipment manufactured by Raytheon to be
featured at the show will include the Hawk medium-range air
defense system -- which provides vital defense capabilities to
more than 18 countries around the world -- and the Advanced
Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile, which is used by the U.S. Air
Force and Navy.

Some 257 parties from 21 nations will participate in the nine-
day air show, which will also feature dynamic and static
exhibitions and entertaining aerobatics teams. (icn)
