Company patents
BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc.
BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc. shows a surprising shift in its patent strategy, with a significant emerging focus on Antennas, which saw a 108.3% year-over-year growth in 2025, despite a broader decline in its core Radar / Sonar / Lidar category (down 7.7% in 2025). While Printed Circuits & Electronic Assemblies also experienced rapid growth of 700.0% in 2024, the company appears to be shifting away from Computer Hardware Architecture, which declined by 28.6% in 2025, and Physical Transmission & Modulation, which saw a 100.0% decline in 2024 and 2026 so far.
