We are a part of the Product Transition Department. This Department provides industry partner support for the Hypersonic Programs in the Strike Systems group within the Integrated Military Systems Program at Sandia. Organization coordinates the development of Mechanical, Electrical, and Avionics flight technologies to be integrated and tested with industry partner support to provide flight solutions for missiles and hypersonic flight platforms. Typically, these systems support the DOD including the Army, Navy, Air Force, and other Agencies.

This center has successfully developed hypersonic systems for the nation and is extending our role on the national stage for both developmental and fieldable systems. Our programs cover a broad spectrum of applications, from advanced aerodynamically controlled vehicles, maneuvering hypersonic kill vehicles, and ballistic missile systems. All activities require the extensive use of commonly developed Sandia avionics as well as prototype next generation technology that has never been flown. Levering existing technologies and maturing the Hypersonics portfolio for national needs is a demanding task and is a key component of Exceptional Service in the National Interest. The department strives to provide leadership to the laboratory and the nation in the creative development, use, and application of Hypersonic flight platforms.
