Huntington Ingalls Industries

Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII) designs, builds, and maintains the most complex ships for the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard, operating as America's largest military shipbuilder. The company extends its capabilities beyond maritime vessels, providing comprehensive all-domain defense solutions and professional services to government and industry partners, encompassing technologies for land, air, sea, and cyber environments.

HII emerged as an independent entity on March 31, 2011, when Northrop Grumman completed the spin-off of its shipbuilding businesses. This strategic move separated Northrop Grumman's ship construction and naval support divisions into a standalone company, allowing for focused development and operations in the highly specialized defense and maritime sectors. The new entity leveraged a shipbuilding legacy stretching back over a century, providing an established foundation for its operations.

The company's primary customers include various branches of the U.S. government, particularly the Department of Defense. HII’s vision centers on advancing national defense capabilities by delivering critical platforms and innovative solutions that support global security objectives. It continually evolves its offerings to meet the dynamic challenges of modern defense, ensuring the nation’s naval superiority and technological edge into the future.
