Headquarters
In 1997, a $1.3 billion merger with Rohr nearly doubled
the size of BFG's aerospace segment and made it a
leading producer of aircraft nacelle systems. Soon after
this acquisition, a 1999 merger with Coltec Industries
created a multi-industry company with leading positions
in aerospace and engineered industrial products.

BFGoodrich, formed in 1870 by Dr. Benjamin Franklin
Goodrich, rapidly became a leading manufacturer of
rubber products, especially tires. In 1986, the company
exited the tire business and focused on its growing
aerospace and performance-materials businesses.
To reflect the changed composition of the company,
BFGoodrich changed its name to Goodrich in 2001.
Today, Goodrich Corporation provides aerospace and
engineered industrial products and services to customers
around the world. The company employed more than
24,000 people – 15,000 in the United States and 9,000
abroad – as of early 2010.

exhaust system, and engine mounts.
NIR/SWIR Camera.
In March 2008, Goodrich
launched production of a new night vision and laser
detection camera that can see from the near infrared
(NIR) to the shortwave infrared (SWIR) portions of the
light spectrum, beyond what traditional night vision
goggles can see. The camera, called NIR/SWIR, uses
the company's proprietary indium gallium arsenidenight vision (InGaAs-NV) technology to detect and
track a broad range of battlefield infrared lasers with
heightened night and daytime sensitivity.
The
NIR/SWIR cameras are being developed by the Sensors
Unlimited Inc team in Princeton, New Jersey, within
Goodrich's ISR Systems unit.
KC-135R Overhaul. In January 2005, the U.S. Air
Force's Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center selected
Goodrich to overhaul engine fan cowls and inlets for its
fleet of KC-135R Stratotanker military tankers. The
work was to take place at Goodrich's Alabama Service
Center located in Foley, Alabama. The contract called
for Goodrich to overhaul a group of 32 KC-135R fan
cowls and 10 inlets on a negotiated schedule
commensurate with the Air Force's needs.
787 Components. In December 2004, Goodrich was
selected by Boeing to supply the entire cargo-handling
system for the new 787 Dreamliner. The Goodrich
cargo system includes the mechanical system, power
drive units, electrical control system, and floor panels.
The contract is expected to generate over $450 million
in original equipment and aftermarket sales through
2028. This was the eighth selection of Goodrich
technology for the Boeing 787. Boeing has awarded
Goodrich contracts for the electric braking system,
exterior lighting, nacelles and thrust reversers, the
proximity sensing system, the fuel quantity indicating
system, and the fuel management software for the 787.
In addition, Goodrich was selected by Rolls-Royce to
provide the engine control system and sensor suite for
the Trent 1000 engine, an engine option for the 787.
These contracts are expected to generate over $7.5
billion in original equipment and aftermarket sales
through 2028.
DoD Strategic Sourcing Initiative. In July 2002,
Goodrich, the Ogden Air Logistics Center, and the
Defense Logistics Agency signed a Memorandum of
Agreement covering landing gear and wheel and brake
spare parts. The MoA constituted the next step in
executing the Strategic Sourcing Initiative (SSI) signed
©2010
earlier in 2002 between Goodrich and multiple DoD
agencies. Although the Air Force will administer the
contract, other DoD customers, including the Army, the
Navy, and the DLA, can procure any Goodrich product
or service through the SSI. The Air Force has
encouraged Goodrich's military product groups to use
the contract as a tool to reduce government lead times
and build a long-term relationship. The SSI contract is
designed to reduce acquisition and production lead
times for aircraft spares. It is potentially worth $495
million over 10 years.
Joint Strike Fighter. In November 2001, Goodrich
announced that it will supply the landing gear, and lead
the landing-system integration effort, for the Lockheed
Martin Joint Strike Fighter (JSF). The company
estimated the potential value of this business at
$4 billion to $5 billion over the life of the new fighter
jet program, including original equipment and
aftermarket sales and service, but excluding foreign
military sales. Goodrich has a signed agreement in
excess of $70 million for initial System Design and
Development (SDD) of the landing gear and for
undercarriage integration. In addition to landing gear
technologies, Goodrich will provide fuel-quantity
gauging components and the associated wiring
harnesses as part of the aircraft's fuel measurement
system. The company will be pursuing additional JSF
content opportunities for aerostructures, engine systems,
lighting systems, avionics, and sensors as they become
available.
A380 Landing Gear. In March 2001, Goodrich was
selected to supply the body and wing landing gear for
Airbus' new A380 aircraft. This marked the first time
that Goodrich had been selected by Airbus to supply
main landing gear. The program has the potential to
generate total revenues of $2 billion to $3 billion over a
20-year period, depending on the number of aircraft
ordered.
In addition to the original equipment,
Goodrich is also providing spare parts and gear
packages directly to operators of A380 aircraft.
Plant Expansion/Organization Update

Strategic Outlook
In the wake of the crash in late 2008, airlines around the
world have only recently have begun to recover, with
markets in Europe and North America bringing up the
rear. Airlines are once again beginning to place orders,
albeit at slow rates, and the wave of cancellations and
deferrals has subsided.
While Boeing and Airbus slowed down somewhat
during the crisis, they did not drastically slash
production rates, instead opting to drop productionincrease plans in response to the crisis. Now, as a
fragile recovery begins, both manufacturers have
announced plans for production increases.
As Goodrich is one of the world's key commercial
aircraft equipment suppliers, its fortunes will mirror
these plans. In the past, the company benefited strongly
from increased production work for both Boeing and
Airbus. Likewise, the company's bottom line fell in
response to the market changes brought about by the
crash.
As the market shifted, Goodrich responded by
implementing cost-containment initiatives throughout
its operations while at the same time improving
productivity. In addition, the firm's defense operations
have continued to perform well, giving the company
some relief from downward economic pressures.

Corporate Overview
Alliant Techsystems' business strategy is to continue to
expand its coverage in such niche areas as warheads,
fuzes, unitary bombs, countermeasures, naval
ammunition, mortar ammunition, and Special Forces
ammunition.
New Products and Services
JATAS. In November 2009, ATK and BAE Systems
were awarded a $32.2 million contract to develop the
Joint Allied Threat Awareness System. JATAS is the
next-generation missile warning system that will
provide protection for U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine
Corps helicopter and tilt-wing aircraft. The ATK and
BAE Systems team will compete against Lockheed
Martin in the JATAS Technology Demonstration (TD)
phase, scheduled for 16 months. This phase will
culminate in flight demonstrations of prototype systems
and a final downselect award by the Navy. Work on the
contract will be performed in ATK's Woodland Hills,
California, and Clearwater, Florida, facilities and at
BAE Systems' facility in Nashua, New Hampshire.
©2010
Other members of the JATAS industry team include
DRS, Goodrich, and Symetrics.
CA/FNC. In October 2009, ATK was awarded a
research and development contract for the Counter
Air/Future Naval Capabilities (CA/FNC) program to
develop technologies that can be incorporated into nextgeneration air-to-air missile systems. The nearly $10
million contract was issued by the Naval Air Warfare
Center Weapons Division, China Lake, California.
ATK will work in concert with NAWCWD to identify
specific propulsion technologies to develop for
integration into future missile systems. The work is
expected to be completed by June 2013. The scope of
the CA/FNC program is to develop technologies that
will extend missile range, decrease time-to-target,
improve end-game maneuverability, and improve the
rocket motor's response to insensitive munitions (IM)
stimuli. These improvements are initially oriented
toward the 7-inch-diameter Advanced Medium Range
Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM).

Alliant Techsystems Inc
GATR. In June 2009, Elbit Systems and Alliant
Techsystems successfully conducted flight tests of the
Guided Advanced Tactical Rocket (GATR). The laserdesignated guided flight, launched from a standard 2.75inch launcher, made direct impact on the target.
Originally announced in July 2008, the GATR
propulsion system is built by ATK with the guidance
and control system built by Elbit Systems. In its tactical
configuration, GATR will incorporate an insensitive
munitions rocket motor and a family of IM warheads to
include blast/fragmentation and penetration. GATR is a
low-cost, precision strike weapon that minimizes
collateral damage, while providing standoff deployment
against a wide array of target sets. The system is
compatible with existing 2.75-inch (70mm) launcher
hardware.
Trent XWB Fan Cases. In January 2009, ATK
signed a contract valued in excess of $200 million with
Rolls-Royce to produce composite aft fan cases for the
new Trent XWB engine. The Rolls-Royce Trent XWB
is the sole engine currently available to power the new
Airbus A350 XWB family of aircraft. In addition to
fabricating the aft fan cases, ATK will integrate
additional components into the cases to deliver a
finished aft case in support of Rolls-Royce's assembly
of the full fan case module. The first ATK-fabricated
Trent XWB aft fan case is scheduled for delivery to
Rolls-Royce in late 2009. Initial ground testing of the
Trent XWB is due to commence in 2010, with maiden
flight on the new Airbus twinjet scheduled for 2012.
ORS Sat-1. In December 2008, ATK, in partnership
with the Goodrich ISR Systems Division, was awarded
a contract to produce the first operational Air Force
ORS satellite, designated ORS Sat-1. The contract was
awarded by the Air Force Space and Missile Systems
Center's Space Development and Test Wing. ATK will
provide the spacecraft bus systems to Goodrich, who as
the satellite's prime contractor, will integrate it with its
payload. The bus design is based on ATK Space
System's Responsive Space Modular Bus (RSMB)
designed to meet the needs of the ORS office. ORS
Sat-1 is planned for launch in 2010.
MSST. In September 2008, ATK was awarded a $97
million contract for the design, development,
integration, and test of the Multi-Stage Supersonic
Target (MSST). With incentives, the value of the
contract could reach $103 million. The system design
and development phase of the program is expected to be
completed by October 2012. The MSST will simulate a
two-stage anti-ship cruise missile threat. It consists of a
two-stage unmanned aerial target, a launcher, and
associated support equipment. The U.S. Navy will use
MSST to evaluate the operational effectiveness of
weapons/combat systems against next-generation
August 2010
surface-to-surface anti-ship missiles that cruise at
subsonic speeds, initiate a separation event, and then
make a supersonic dash to the intended target. Work
will be performed in Sacramento and Woodland Hills,
California; Plymouth, Minnesota; Elkton, Maryland;
and Wichita, Kansas.
BattleAxe. In March 2008, ATK was selected by the
Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to receive a
$1.6 million contract to continue development of a
small, lightweight warhead that will provide a unique
battlefield solution to stop an enemy target. The goal of
the BattleAxe program is to develop a multirole,
miniature warhead that will destroy targets completely
without causing major collateral damage to the
surrounding areas. Potential targets for the BattleAxe
include unarmored and armored vehicles and buildings
in urban environments. Applications for this warhead
include low-cost mini-cruise missiles and weaponized
unmanned aerial vehicles, allowing greater protection
for deployed troops in hostile environments. The
BattleAxe program consists of three phases. ATK
successfully completed Phase 1 and won the Phase 2
downselect to be the single provider.
Orion CEV Solar Arrays. In January 2008, ATK
was selected by Lockheed Martin Space Systems to
develop and build UltraFlex solar arrays for NASA's
next-generation Orion crew exploration vehicle. The
value of the initial design and development contract is
expected to exceed $50 million. Program management,
design, engineering, analysis, manufacturing, assembly,
and test work for the solar arrays will be conducted at
ATK's facility in Goleta, California. Because the flight
solar array system is expendable for each Orion
mission, ATK expects continuous production through
2020 and beyond.
Ares I First Stage. In August 2007, ATK received a
$1.8 billion contract for the design, development, test,
and evaluation (DDT&E) of the first stage of the
agency's next-generation human space flight vehicle, the
Ares I. The Ares I first stage is a single, five-segment
reusable solid rocket booster (SRB) derived from the
Space Shuttle program's reusable solid rocket motor.
The multiyear development contract extends through
June 2013 and includes flight tests beginning in 2009.
Follow-on human flights are scheduled for no later than
2014, and production hardware for those flights will be
developed under a separate contract expected after
2010. The first stage of the Ares I crew launch vehicle
is being designed and developed by ATK at its facilities
in Utah, with the assistance of a nationwide
subcontractor team.
Orion Launch Abort Motors. In July 2007, ATK
received a $62.5 million contract from Orbital Sciences
Corporation for the main abort motor of the NASA
Defense & Aerospace Companies, Volume l - North America
Page 5
Alliant Techsystems Inc
Orion crew exploration vehicle Launch Abort System
(LAS). Under the terms of the contract, ATK will
design, develop, produce, test, and deliver the launch
abort motor (LAM), the largest of three propulsion units
integrated into the LAS. The contract includes four fullscale static test units and eight deliverable motors to
Orbital for pathfinders, test flights, and program
support. Orbital is subcontracted to Lockheed Martin,
which is the prime contractor for Orion.
Plant Expansion/Organization Update
ATK Realigns. In March 2010, Alliant Techsystems
realigned its business structure into four operating
groups: Aerospace Systems, Armament Systems,
Missile Products, and Security and Sporting. The newly
formed Aerospace Systems group includes the Space
Systems group and the Aerospace Structures business of
Mission Systems; Mission Systems has been renamed
Missile Products to more accurately reflect its focus; the
new Security and Sporting group handles ammunition
and accessories for sporting, military, personal security,

Combined. In June 2008, ATK combined its Launch
Systems and Space Systems groups into a single
business. The company said the new organization is a
natural alignment of its space-related businesses to
deliver increased operating efficiencies while creating a
broader customer base for ATK's technology portfolio.
Carl Marchetto, current president of the company's
Space Systems group, will lead the new organization,
which will retain the Space Systems name. ATK Space
Systems includes the space operations of ATK's
Mission Systems group. The group was to have been
combined with the Information Systems and Geospatial
businesses of MacDonald, Dettwiler & Associates upon
completion of that acquisition. However that purchase
was scuttled in May 2008 when Canada halted the deal.
Mergers/Acquisitions/Divestitures
Blackhawk Industries Acquired. In April 2010,
Alliant Techsystems acquired Blackhawk Industries

Strategic Outlook
As it profits from the current conflicts, ATK is investing
in diversity for its future. The years of conflict in the
Middle East have provided much work for Alliant
Techsystems. The conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan
have kept the company's ammunition manufacturing
running at an all-time high. Further, the demand has led
to several modernization efforts at the company's
government-owned, contractor-operated munitions
facilities.
Nevertheless, this situation is not expected to continue
indefinitely, so ATK is using some of its profits to
invest in its future. In 2007, the company acquired
Swales Aerospace, a move that enhanced the company's
space systems segment – so much so that Swales is now
the headquarters of ATK's Space Systems division. The
addition of Swales provides ATK with expertise in
satellite components, subsystems, small spacecraft, and
space-related engineering services.
Recently, the company has focused on complementary
diversification, moving into the tactical systems field.
Through the acquisition of Eagle Industries in 2009 and
Blackhawk Industries in 2010, ATK now has a foothold
in the niche industry of tactical accessories for military,
sporting, and law enforcement markets. These two
operations now form the foundation of a new division
within ATK, Security and Sporting.
ATK is expected to continue to perform well for the
foreseeable future. The company's management knows
well the nature of the market it serves and is responding
appropriately to changes expected in the near term.

Ordnance & Munitions Programs
Government-Owned ContractorOperated (GOCO) Facilities
Before World War II, the government recognized three
important factors. First, private industry could not
realistically support the massive production capabilities
needed for potential armed conflict. Second, facilities
built for consumer and industrial products could not, for
the most part, be transitioned into ammunition plants.
Third, the expertise to operate and manage highproduction plants resided in the private sector. The
answer in 1940 was GOCO, in which government plants
were designed, constructed, and operated with
American industry providing the expertise and operating
capabilities. Since that time, GOCO plants were
supposed to alternate between production and standby,
depending upon national needs. Most GOCO plants are
installations under the U.S. Army Armament, Munitions
and Chemical Command, or are Department of Energy
nuclear fuel plants.
Today, GOCO plants are competitive enterprises. They
can enter into direct contracts with domestic and foreign
military services and with approved contractors. The
products manufactured at GOCO facilities establish
stability and provide offsets to plant maintenance costs
through rental fees. Entrenched GOCO operators
usually win follow-on service contracts for periods of
three to five years unless a major catastrophe occurs.
The Company Operator (CO) profits are incentiverelated, ranging from 5 percent to perhaps 10 percent for
outstanding results such as meeting schedules,
maintaining quality, and improving safety records.
Alliant has had plant accidents, but on balance, the
safety record is good considering the products involved.
There is no indication that the company's GOCO
programs are at risk.
Alliant's Armament Systems operates the following
GOCO facilities: Radford Army Ammunition Plant,
Radford, Virginia; Lake City Army Ammunition Plant,
Independence, Missouri; and Allegany Ballistics
Laboratory, Rocket Center, West Virginia.
25mm Ammunition
Alliant was also involved in the manufacture of motors
for the following strategic missile programs:
LGM-30F/LGM-30G Minuteman
MGM-118A Peacekeeper
UGM-133A Trident II
©2010
Procurement of this caliber continues to increase as
various new weapons are introduced into service use.
The primary driver in this program has been the M242
Bushmaster cannon, which arms the Army's M2/M3
Bradley fighting vehicle, but the Marines use this
weapon both for the Light Armored Vehicle-25 and in
podded form for the AV-8B aircraft.

spacecraft, formerly known as the Crew Exploration
Vehicle (CEV), for the Constellation Program.
Defense & Aerospace Companies, Volume l - North America
Page 13
Alliant Techsystems Inc
Preliminary missions with Ares I will be to the
International Space Station. Up to six crew members
could be carried to the ISS, or the rocket could be
launched unmanned to maximize cargo. Landing on the
moon and Mars will be the goal of future missions. For
lunar missions, Ares I will launch Orion with four crew
members into a low-Earth orbit, where they will
rendezvous with the Earth Departure Stage (EDS) of an
Ares V. Once joined, the EDS will push Orion toward
the moon. NASA has selected ATK Space Systems to
be the prime contractor to design, develop, and produce
the first-stage propulsion system for the Ares I Crew
Launch Vehicle. The first stage is a single, fivesegment reusable solid rocket booster (SRB) derived
from the Space Shuttle solid rocket motors developed
and produced by ATK Launch Systems. In 2007,
Alliant Techsystems received a $62.5 million contract
from Orbital Sciences Corporation for the main abort
motor of the NASA Orion crew exploration vehicle
Launch Abort System (LAS).
Ares V
The Ares V is the unmanned heavy-lift Cargo Launch
Vehicle (CaLV) to be used for NASA's Constellation
Program, which seeks to send humans to the moon,
Mars, and beyond. The rocket will lift an estimated 188
metric tons to low-Earth orbit. The upper stage of the
Ares V is the Earth Departure Stage (EDS), which will
house a Lunar Surface Access Module (LSAM). The
EDS will rendezvous with Orion (the Crew Exploration
Vehicle) in orbit and will take the craft out of Earth
orbit. As with the Ares I, ATK Space Systems is
developing the vehicle's five-segment reusable SRB.
Atlas Launch Vehicles
Atlas is a family of medium-lift expendable launch
vehicles. Atlas ELVs are designed primarily to carry
large communications satellites to geosynchronous
transfer orbit. The Atlas IIAS features four Castor IVA

to assemble, launch, retrieve, and refurbish reusable
systems and parts of the Shuttle program. The Space
Shuttle program is nearing completion, with the last
flight scheduled for the end of 2010.
Taurus
Taurus is a four-stage, solid-propellant expendable
launch vehicle. Taurus is a hybrid booster, combining
the new Castor 120 solid rocket first stage with the three
stages of the OSC Pegasus air-launched winged booster
produced by Alliant. OSC launched its first Taurus
vehicle in March 1994.
