11 Sept. 2020 -- The newly acquired business, which provides electro-optical systems for the U.S. Defense Department, will be renamed Danbury Mission Technologies.
The acquisition was one of the major divestitures required by the U.S. Department of Justice when it approved the merger of defense contracting giants United Technologies Corp. and Raytheon in March.
