Why BAE Systems? BAE Systems is the third largest defense contractor in the world with an exceptional, mission-focused culture. The 1,200+ BAE Systems employees and sub-contractors located at Hill Air Force Base, Utah are aligned to the United States Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center. We support the Center in sustainment of the existing LGM-30 Minuteman III (MM III) weapon system and acquisition of its replacement, the YLGM-182A Sentinel, formerly known as Ground-Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD). We are a valued mission partner delivering daily excellence and innovative solutions to our government customers.
