NPOV breach

The following pretty much speaks for itself, the bolded parts are things that indicate NPOV:
Electronic Systems：Electronic Systems produces commercial and defense electronics for flight and engine control, electronic warfare, surveillance, communications, and power and energy management.

Intelligence & Security：Intelligence & Security delivers a broad range of solutions and services enabling militaries and governments to successfully carry out their missions. The company provides large-scale systems engineering, integration, and sustainment services across air, land, sea, space, and cyber domains.

Platforms & Services：Platforms & Services is a leading provider of tracked and wheeled armored combat vehicles, naval guns, naval ship repair and modernization, artillery and missile launching systems, advanced precision strike munitions and ordnance, and other technologies for U.S. and international customers.[3]

In the company's 2003 Annual Report the Chairman sums up BAE Systems' strategy since the merger; "In recent years BAE Systems has undergone a radical transformation from a UK-based aircraft manufacturer to a broadly-based systems business. Through this transformation the company has achieved a more balanced portfolio and geographic spread."

Thanks in advance,

'Subsidiaries'

I am not sure if these are correct, the different business sectors I don't believe are 'subsidiaries' so much as just like departments of a sort. Not sure how exactly that works but may be worth looking into further if you're looking into BAE Systems Inc. 149.32.192.33 (talk) 15:28, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

My thoughts here: P&S is not a separate company, it is still a part of BAE Systems Inc. so I am not sure legally what the deal is with the different sectors but as far as operations go they do not operate as separate companies the way that BAE Systems Plc and BAE Systems Inc do? Plus the security agreement situation, like I said not sure legally how the company defines the sectors but... 149.32.192.33 (talk) 15:36, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
