Lockheed Martin To Provide Navy With Control Systems The U.S. Navy has selected Lockheed Martin Information Systems to provide 12 machinery control systems for the nation's guided missile destroyer fleet. Under terms of $19 million of sub- contract awards from two ship- yards, Bath Iron Works and Ingalls Shipbuilding, Lockheed Martin will deliver controls for six destroyers built at each facility. "Our latest machinery control sys- tem relies upon the insertion of commercial-off-the-shelf products into a ruggedized military hard- ware environment," said John Hallal, president of Lockheed Martin Information Systems. The Lockheed Martin machinery control systems provide supervisory control and monitoring of the ship's propulsion, electrical, damage and auxiliary functions. The computer- based environment uses U.S. Navy standard work stations and dam- age-control software that can be used across the fleet.
