A Message From Mike Petters
A legend was reborn 10 years ago when Huntington Ingalls Industries spun from Northrop Grumman on March 31, 2011, combining Ingalls Shipbuilding and Newport News Shipbuilding to become America’s largest shipbuilding company.
Today, HII is Fortune 400 company with a backlog of more than $40 billion dollars. We continue to build ships for the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard, and we’ve transformed to become a primary player in the Department of Energy arena and unmanned maritime markets.
To celebrate our 10-year anniversary, we are recognizing our employees’ accomplishments and dedication. Nationwide and internationally, our 42,000 employees do hard stuff right every day.
