Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
20 rewritten, 8 added, 4 removed, 101 unchanged
In addition, our sales to non-U.S. customers expose us to different financial and legal [added: risks.]
The U.S. government provides a significant portion of our revenue. In [removed: 2020, approximately] [added: 2021,] 70% of our consolidated revenue was from the U.S. government.
Our [removed: U.S.] government contracts are subject to termination rights by the customer. U.S. government contracts generally permit the government to terminate a contract, in whole or in part, for convenience.
[removed: If a contract is terminated for convenience, a contractor usually is entitled to receive payments for its] allowable costs incurred and the proportionate share of fees or earnings for the work performed.
The U.S. government also reviews the adequacy of, and compliance with, internal control systems and policies, including the contractor’s purchasing, property, [added: estimating, material, earned value management and accounting systems.]
[removed: We manage our] supplier base carefully to avoid or minimize customer issues.
[added: Accordingly, our future performance depends in part on our ability to continue to develop,] manufacture and provide innovative products and services and bring those offerings to market quickly at cost-effective prices.
We have made and expect to continue to make investments, including acquisitions and joint ventures, that involve risks and uncertainties. When evaluating potential acquisitions and joint ventures, we make judgments regarding the value of business opportunities, [removed: technologies,] [added: technologies] and other [removed: assets] [added: assets,] and the risks and costs of potential liabilities based on information available to us at the time of the transaction.
Whether we realize the anticipated benefits from these transactions depends on multiple factors, including our integration of the businesses involved; the performance of the underlying products, [removed: capabilities] [added: capabilities,] or technologies; market conditions following the acquisition; and acquired liabilities, including some that may not have been identified prior to the acquisition.
[removed: Goodwill is subject to an] [added: We review goodwill for] impairment [removed: test on an annual basis] [added: annually at each of our reporting units] or when circumstances indicate that the likelihood of an impairment is greater than 50%.
Our business could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity events and other disruptions. We face various cybersecurity threats, including threats to our IT infrastructure and attempts to gain [added: unauthorized] access to our proprietary or classified information, denial-of-service attacks, as well as threats to the physical security of our facilities and employees, and threats from terrorist acts.
Accordingly, we maintain information security staff, policies and procedures for managing risk to our information [removed: systems, and] [added: systems; we] conduct employee training on cybersecurity to mitigate persistent and continuously evolving cybersecurity [removed: threats.][added: threats; and we report cybersecurity events or losses of customer data to affected customers and applicable regulatory authorities.]
However, there can be no assurance that any such [removed: actions] [added: actions, or the safeguards put in place by our customers, suppliers, subcontractors and other parties on which we rely,] will be sufficient to [added: detect,] prevent [added: and mitigate] cybersecurity [removed: breaches,] [added: breaches or] disruptions, [added: or the] unauthorized release of sensitive information or corruption of data.
We have experienced cybersecurity [removed: threats] [added: events and disruptions] such as viruses and attacks targeting our IT systems.
[removed: Due to the evolving nature of these security] threats, the potential impact of any future incident cannot be predicted.
Effects include disruptions or restrictions on our employees’ ability to work effectively, [removed: as well as] temporary closures of our facilities or the facilities of our [removed: customers or suppliers,] [added: customers, and supply-chain disruptions,] which [removed: can] [added: could] affect our ability to perform on our contracts.
[removed: Resulting] [added: Any] cost increases [added: that result from these effects] may not be fully recoverable on our contracts or adequately covered by insurance, which could impact our profitability.
The imposition of quarantine and travel restrictions has [added: negatively] affected [removed: and] [added: and, if reimposed,] may [added: continue to negatively affect portions of our business, particularly our Aerospace and Technologies segments.]
Such developments may include the geographic spread and duration of the virus, [added: including] the [added: emergence of new variants, the] severity of the [removed: disease] [added: disease, vaccination rates] and the actions that may be taken by various governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.
[removed: Therefore, actual future results and trends] may differ materially from what is forecast in forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the risk factors discussed in this Form 10-K.
If a contract is terminated for convenience, a contractor usually is entitled to receive payments for its

In addition, the U.S. government’s federal contractor vaccine mandate could adversely affect our ability, and our subcontractors’ ability, to hire and retain highly skilled employees to work on U.S. government programs.
Increased regulation related to global climate change could negatively affect our business. Increased public awareness and concern regarding global climate change may result in state, federal or international requirements to reduce or mitigate global warming, such as the imposition of carbon pricing mechanisms or stricter limits on greenhouse gas emissions.
If environmental or climate-change laws or regulations are adopted or changed that impose significant new costs, operational restrictions or compliance requirements upon our business or our products, they could increase our capital expenditures, reduce our margins and adversely affect our financial position.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
177 rewritten, 149 added, 213 removed, 212 unchanged
For an overview of our operating segments, including a discussion of our major products and [removed: services and the reorganization of our Information Technology and Mission Systems operating segments into a single Technologies segment,] [added: services,] see the Business discussion contained in Item 1.
[removed: A] [added: The following] discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] compared with [removed: 2019 is presented below and] [added: 2020] should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8, while a discussion of [removed: 2019] [added: 2020] compared with [removed: 2018] [added: 2019] can be found in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, [removed: 2019.][added: 2020.]
GLOBAL [removed: PANDEMIC][added: PANDEMIC UPDATE]
The [removed: Coronavirus] [added: coronavirus] (COVID-19) pandemic has caused significant disruptions to national and global economies and government [removed: activities.][added: activities since March 2020.]
During this time, we have continued to conduct our operations [removed: to the fullest extent possible,] while responding to the pandemic with actions [removed: that include:][added: to mitigate adverse consequences to our employees, business, supply chain and customers.]
[removed: While we expect this situation to be temporary, any longer-term] [added: Any long-term] impact to our business is currently unknown due to the uncertainty around the pandemic’s duration and its broader impact.
The United States and [removed: some] other governments have taken [added: several] steps to respond to the [removed: pandemic and to support economic activity and liquidity in the capital markets.][added: pandemic.]
See Note [removed: A] [added: S] to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 for additional [removed: information about our use of estimates and other uncertainties.][added: information.]
The Review of Operating Segments includes additional information on the [removed: full-year results for each] [added: impacts] of [removed: our] [added: the pandemic for the affected] segments.
[removed: In March 2020, we issued $4 billion of fixed-rate notes] [added: The proceeds, together with cash on hand and commercial paper issuances, were used] to repay [removed: $2.5 billion of] fixed- and floating-rate notes [added: totaling $2.5 billion] that matured in May [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] and for general corporate [removed: purposes, including the repayment of a portion of our borrowings under our commercial paper program.][added: purposes.]
In the Aerospace segment, we record revenue on contracts for new aircraft when the customer obtains control of the asset, which is generally upon delivery and acceptance by the customer of the fully [removed: outfitted aircraft.]
Additional factors affecting the segment’s earnings and margin include the volume, mix and profitability of completions and services work performed, the [removed: volume of and] market for pre-owned aircraft, and the level of general and administrative (G&A) and net research and development (R&D) costs incurred by the segment.

The [removed: change] [added: increase] in the Aerospace segment’s revenue in [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] consisted of the following:
| Aircraft manufacturing | | | [removed: $] [added: (251)] | [removed: (1,426)] | |
| Total decrease | | | $ | [removed: (1,726)] [added: (52)] | |
The change in the segment’s operating earnings in [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] consisted of the following:
| Aircraft manufacturing | | | $ | [removed: (590)] [added: (160)] | |
| Aircraft services [removed: and completions] | | | [removed: (39)] [added: $] | [added: 311] | |
| G&A/other expenses | | | [removed: 239] [added: (73)] | | |
| Total decrease | | | $ | [removed: (449)] [added: (191)] | |
Aircraft manufacturing operating earnings were down in [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] due to [added: the planned] reduced aircraft production and delivery rates and [removed: a somewhat less favorable mix in aircraft deliveries.][added: mark-to-market adjustments related to G500 test aircraft.]
[removed: Full-year results were negatively impacted by] [added: The operating earnings variance also reflects] restructuring actions taken [added: in 2020] to adjust the workforce size to the revised [removed: 2020] production levels.
In total, the Aerospace segment’s operating margin decreased [removed: 220] [added: 70] basis points [added: in 2021] to [removed: 13.4%.][added: 12.7%.]

The increase in the Marine Systems segment’s revenue in [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] consisted of the following:
| U.S. Navy ship construction | | | $ | [removed: 668] [added: 716] | |
| U.S. Navy ship engineering, repair and other services | | | [removed: 176] [added: (80)] | | |
| Commercial ship construction | | | [removed: (48)] [added: (89)] | | |
| Total increase | | | $ | [removed: 796] [added: 60] | |
Revenue from U.S. Navy ship construction [removed: and engineering work] was up [added: across our shipyards] in [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] due to increased volume on the Columbia-class submarine [added: program, the John Lewis-class (T-AO-205) fleet replenishment oiler program and the Arleigh Burke-class (DDG-51) destroyer] program.
Consistent with our prioritization of the health and safety of our employees, we continue to encourage and promote vaccination across the company.
For additional information, see the Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A.
On September 9, 2021, the president signed Executive Order 14042, initiating a process whereby covered federal contractors and subcontractors must implement federally required vaccine mandates.
A clause implementing the federal contractor vaccine mandate has been incorporated into a number of our federal contracts.
In light of certain court orders, however, the Office of Management and Budget has stated that the U.S. government will not take action to enforce this clause until further notice.
If ultimately upheld, this federal contract requirement may affect various business units differently.
We are working closely with our customer to ensure that we minimize disruptions and potential employee attrition in the event that applicable contract modifications are enforceable and as additional modifications are received that could trigger implementation.
To the extent that we or our subcontractors experience employee attrition and/or work stoppages, our costs could increase, schedules could slip on affected programs and our ability to perform under some contracts could be negatively affected, particularly in those instances where we cannot receive cost reimbursement.
Our Aerospace segment’s operating results have experienced the most significant impact from the pandemic.
New aircraft deliveries in 2021 reflected our decision in 2020 to reduce production rates to accommodate supply chain challenges and reduced demand due to the pandemic.
However, aircraft demand has been strong in 2021, with orders reaching their highest level in over a decade.
Similarly, demand for aircraft services has improved as air travel has increased, but remains below pre-pandemic levels in some regions of the world.
Our U.S. government business continues to experience some disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in our Technologies segment.
The Congress has not yet passed a defense appropriations bill for the government’s fiscal year (FY) 2022 despite the fact that the new year began on October 1, 2021.
However, on December 3, 2021, a continuing resolution (CR) was signed into law, providing funding for federal agencies through February 18, 2022.
When the government operates under a CR, all programs of record are funded at the prior year’s appropriated levels, and the Department of Defense (DoD) is prohibited from starting new programs.
While this could result in delayed revenue growth as programs that were expected to have increased funding levels continue to operate at the prior-year levels until the current-year appropriations bill is passed, we do not anticipate that the current CR, or any subsequent extensions, will have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
OTHER LEGISLATIVE ACTIVITY
In November 2021, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Build Back Better Act (BBBA), which provides for changes to U.S. corporate income taxation.
BBBA would delay until 2026 the requirement to capitalize and amortize over five years certain research and experimental expenditures beginning in 2022 that were previously deductible immediately.
We cannot determine whether some or all of the proposals that were included in BBBA will be enacted into law or what, if any, change may be made to such proposals prior to enactment.
If the requirement to capitalize and amortize research and experimental expenditures were delayed via passage of BBBA or other legislation, it would delay the temporary increase in our tax payments otherwise beginning in 2022 that would be caused by the capitalization requirement.

2021 IN REVIEW
- Strong operating performance:
◦Revenue of $38.5 billion, an increase of 1.4% from 2020.
◦Diluted earnings per share of $11.55, up 5% from 2020.
◦Significant Gulfstream aircraft order activity, including orders for the recently announced G400 and G800 aircraft.
| Revenue | | | $ | 38,469 | | | | | $ | 37,925 | | | | | $ | 544 | | | | | 1.4 | | % |
| Operating earnings | | | 4,163 | | | | | | 4,133 | | | | | | 30 | | | | | | 0.7 | | % |
Our consolidated revenue increased in 2021 driven by growth in U.S. Navy ship construction in our Marine Systems segment.
Higher aircraft services activity was offset by a planned reduction in aircraft deliveries in our Aerospace segment.
Lower C5ISR solutions revenue was offset partially by increased IT services activity in our Technologies segment and international vehicle revenue in our Combat Systems segment.
Operating margin remained steady in 2021.
| Year Ended December 31 | | | 2021 | | | | | | 2020 | | | | | | Variance | | | | | | | | |
| Revenue | | | $ | 8,135 | | | | | $ | 8,075 | | | | | $ | 60 | | | | | 0.7 | | % |
| Operating earnings | | | 1,031 | | | | | | 1,083 | | | | | | (52) | | | | | | (4.8) | | % |
Aircraft services revenue was higher in 2021 due to increased air travel driving additional demand for maintenance work and activity at our fixed-base operator (FBO) facilities.
| Aircraft services | | | 122 | | |
| Impact of 2020 restructuring charge | | | 59 | | |
Prior-period segment information has been restated for the reorganization.
The Technologies segment’s results of operations for 2019 compared with 2018 can be obtained from the discussions of the former Information Technology and Mission Systems operating segments.
Our businesses have been designated as critical infrastructure by the U.S. government and many non-U.S. governments and, as such, are required to stay open.
- implementing measures to protect the health and safety of our employees.
- modifying employee work locations and schedules where possible and permitted under our contracts.
- coordinating closely with our suppliers and customers.
- managing our cost structure in the context of current business activity.
- instituting various aspects of our business continuity programs.
- planning for and working aggressively to mitigate disruptions that may occur.
- supporting our communities and the U.S. government in addressing the challenges of the pandemic, such as the production of medical supplies and donation of personal protective equipment.
See the Risk Factors in Item 1A, regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as additional risks facing our business, which may be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
In the United States, the adoption of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) provides various forms of relief.
The CARES Act includes provisions that allow agencies to reimburse contractors for payments to covered workers who are prevented from working due to COVID-19 facility closures or other restrictions; however, such reimbursement is subject to the availability of funds.
These provisions of the CARES Act have been extended through March 31, 2021.
The CARES Act also allows for loans to companies.
To date, we have not sought or accepted CARES Act loans.
In addition, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) increased progress payment rates and reduced retention rates on certain contracts to
provide liquidity to federal contractors and their suppliers.
We in turn advanced payments across our supplier base to help maintain the health and liquidity of our supply chain.
Outside of the United States, other governments have established various government workforce programs, which can support business continuity for our foreign operations.
We continue to assess the benefits and limitations of the actions taken by the United States and other governments.
Our U.S. government business experienced some disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic, including reduced activities due to select customer site closures and limited access to some customer sites, travel restrictions, slowdowns in the provision of materials from suppliers, and lower man-hours at some manufacturing sites.
Internationally, while government actions shut down some of our facilities in the second quarter, our defense business has largely returned to normal operations.
Within our Aerospace segment, pandemic-related travel limitations resulted in lower demand for aircraft services due to reduced flight activity, and disrupted the aircraft sales process by limiting our ability to arrange demonstration flights and coordinate in-person access to customers.
To de-risk elements of the supply chain and better align production with demand, we have reduced our aircraft production rate until such time that the marketplace supports future increases.
Accordingly, we have adjusted staffing levels and taken other cost control measures.
We expect COVID-19 to continue to negatively impact our businesses, particularly Aerospace, until the large economies of the world recover from the effects of the pandemic.
As air travel resumes, we expect aircraft services volume to increase, but we could see some future aircraft deliveries delayed to the extent customers have difficulty traveling to take possession of their aircraft.
In addition, should the global economy experience a significant extended downturn from the pandemic, demand for our aerospace products and services would likely be impacted.
We believe the support by the DoD, and the U.S. government generally, of the defense industrial base has helped and will continue to help mitigate the effects of disruptions on our U.S. defense business.
Our non-U.S. defense business will be impacted to varying degrees based on the response of the countries in which they operate.
We will continue to assess further potential consequences to our employees, business, supply chain and customers, and take actions to mitigate adverse outcomes.
We took actions in 2020 to strengthen our liquidity and financial condition.
In addition to this long-term borrowing, we renewed our access to $5 billion of credit facilities.
While part of our pre-COVID-19 planning, this liquidity preserves our financial flexibility during the pandemic.
We believe that our cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity are sufficient to support our short- and long-term liquidity needs.
On December 27, 2020, the fiscal year (FY) 2021 defense appropriations bill was signed into law.
It totaled $696 billion, a modest increase over FY 2020, and included $627 billion in the base budget in compliance with the previously established spending caps and $69 billion for overseas contingency operations.
An understanding of our accounting practices is necessary in the evaluation of our financial statements and operating results.
In the discussion that follows, prior-period information has been restated for the retrospective application of a change in accounting principle related to the amortization of actuarial gains and losses for our qualified U.S. government pension plans, which we adopted in the fourth quarter of 2020 as discussed in Note T to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
An excerpt. Shown here: 40 of 177 rewritten, 40 of 149 added and 40 of 213 removed. The counts are complete. For every sentence, read Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS in the FY2021 filing and the FY2020 filing.
Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
8 rewritten, 3 added, 4 removed, 10 unchanged
See Note [removed: N] [added: Q] to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 for a discussion of [removed: these risks.][added: commodity price risk.]
[removed: We] [added: On December 31, 2020, we] had notional forward exchange and interest rate swap contracts outstanding of $9.4 [removed: billion and $5 billion on December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.][added: billion.]
A 10% unfavorable rate movement in our portfolio of forward exchange and interest rate swap contracts would have resulted in the following hypothetical, incremental pretax [removed: gains (losses):][added: (losses) gains:]
| (Dollars in millions) | | | [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] | | | | | | [removed: 2019] [added: 2020] | | |
| Recognized | | | $ | [removed: 44] [added: (1)] | | | | | $ | [removed: 60] [added: 44] | |
| Unrecognized | | | [removed: (344)] [added: (196)] | | | | | | [removed: (161)] [added: (344)] | | |
On December 31, [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] and [removed: 2019,] [added: 2020,] we held [removed: $2.8] [added: $1.6] billion and [removed: $902] [added: $2.8 billion] in cash and equivalents, respectively, but held no marketable securities other than those held in trust to meet some of our obligations under workers’ compensation and non-qualified pension plans.
On December 31, [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] and [removed: 2019,] [added: 2020,] we held marketable securities in trust of [removed: $211] [added: $191] and [removed: $207,] [added: $211,] respectively.
On December 31, 2021, we had notional forward exchange contracts outstanding of $6.8 billion.
These losses and gains would be offset by corresponding gains and losses in the remeasurement of the underlying transactions being hedged.
Interest Rate Risk. On December 31, 2021, we had $11.5 billion principal amount of fixed-rate debt.
While the hypothetical, incremental pretax losses in the table above have increased significantly from 2019, we do not believe this represents a meaningful increase in our risk profile as these losses and gains would be offset by corresponding gains and losses in the remeasurement of the underlying transactions being hedged.
Interest Rate Risk. Our financial instruments subject to interest rate risk include fixed- and floating-rate long-term debt obligations.
On December 31, 2020, we had $12.5 billion par value of fixed-rate debt and $500 of floating-rate notes.
As described in Note K to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, we entered into derivative financial instruments, specifically interest rate swap contracts, to eliminate our floating-rate interest risk.
Item 1. BUSINESS
116 rewritten, 33 added, 19 removed, 226 unchanged
Over the past [removed: eight] [added: nine] years, we have invested [removed: nearly $20] [added: approximately $22] billion to create, renew or expand our portfolio of products and services across our businesses to drive long-term growth and shareholder value creation.
[removed: These] [added: The Gulfstream family of] aircraft offer industry-leading cabin, cockpit and safety technologies and the longest ranges at the fastest speeds in their respective classes.
The following represents Gulfstream’s current product line, along with the maximum range, maximum [removed: speed and] [added: speed,] cabin length (excluding [removed: baggage)] [added: baggage), and total number of city-pair speed records held] for each aircraft:
[removed: ][added: ]
The most recent additions to the [added: in-service] Gulfstream fleet are two new large-cabin aircraft, the G500 and G600, which entered service in 2018 and 2019, respectively.
These clean-sheet (i.e., all-new) aircraft replace the G450 and G550 models, [removed: which have a] [added: whose] combined [added: family has an] installed base of more than 1,650 aircraft around the world.
[removed: Our investment included development of a] new [removed: wing, new avionics, new] fuselage and new ergonomically designed larger interiors, as well as systems and technologies to improve the manufacturing process and quality of the platform.
At year-end [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] cumulative deliveries for [removed: the two new] [added: these] aircraft totaled almost [removed: 100.][added: 150.]
It combines our most spacious cabin with our advanced Symmetry Flight [removed: Deck] [added: Deck, the industry’s most technologically advanced flight deck, which we launched on our G500] and [added: G600 aircraft, and] the superior [removed: high-][added: high-speed performance of all-new engines to create best-in-class capabilities.]
Gulfstream is in the process of flight testing and certification of the G700, which [removed: we expect to enter service in the fourth quarter of 2022.][added: currently has over 2,200 test hours.]
The ultra-long-range, ultra-large-cabin G650 and G650ER continue to generate significant customer interest, with more than [removed: 430] [added: 470] aircraft of this family currently operating in 50 countries.

Gulfstream’s current product line holds more than [removed: 300] [added: 270] city-pair speed records, more than any other business jet manufacturer, led by the G650ER, which holds the National Aeronautic Association’s polar and westbound around-the-world speed records.
Our disciplined and consistent approach to new product development [removed: allows] [added: has allowed] us to [removed: repeatedly] introduce [added: repeatedly] first-to-market capabilities that set industry standards for safety, performance, quality, speed and comfort.
[removed: In support of] [added: As] Gulfstream’s [removed: growing] aircraft portfolio and customer [removed: base,] [added: base have grown and become increasingly global in reach over the years,] we have invested in our facilities and [removed: operations.][added: operations around the world.]
We offer comprehensive support for the more than [removed: 2,900] [added: 3,000] Gulfstream aircraft in service around the world and operate the largest factory-owned service network in the industry.
We operate a leading global FBO network and support all aircraft types with the [removed: full-range] [added: full range] of maintenance services, including 24/7 global aircraft-on-ground support.
We continue to grow our global footprint through acquisitions, expansions and significant renovations in key [removed: business-aviation] [added: business aviation] markets.

Our Marine Systems segment is the leading designer and builder of nuclear-powered submarines and a leader in surface [removed: combatants] [added: combatant] and auxiliary ship design and construction for the U.S. Navy.
In addition to Navy ships, we design and build ocean-going Jones [added: Act ships for commercial customers.]
In support of our Navy customer’s significant increase in demand for submarines and surface ships, we are making substantial investments to expand our facilities, grow and train our workforce, and [removed: support] [added: expand] our supply [removed: chain, particularly in our submarine business.][added: chain.]
The resulting increase in capacity and capabilities will support the unprecedented growth expected in our shipbuilding business, [removed: especially] [added: particularly] submarines, for the next two decades.
The Navy procures Virginia-class submarines in multi-boat blocks, currently at a two-per-year [removed: construction] rate.
We are currently working on Blocks IV and V in the program, with [removed: 18] [added: 19] Virginia-class submarines in our backlog scheduled for delivery through [removed: 2029.][added: 2031.]
[removed: Eight] [added: Nine] of the boats in Block V include the Virginia Payload Module (VPM), an 84-foot Electric Boat-designed-and-built hull section that adds four additional payload tubes, more than tripling the strike capacity of these submarines and providing unique capabilities to support special missions.
The [removed: Navy’s] Columbia-class ballistic-missile submarine is a 12-boat program that the Navy considers its top [added: acquisition] priority.
[removed: To mitigate risk, the] [added: The] submarine’s design was more than 80% complete at the time we began construction of the first [removed: boat,] [added: boat in 2020,] nearly twice as mature as any [removed: other Navy] [added: of the Navy’s previous] submarine [removed: program] [added: programs] at the start of construction.
We are investing $1.8 billion of capital in expanded and modernized facilities at Electric Boat to support the growth in submarine [removed: construction.][added: construction and expect the projects to be substantially complete by the end of 2023.]
Equal to the commitment of capital is our commitment to our [added: Electric Boat] workforce, which is on track to grow approximately [removed: 30% over] [added: 25% in] the [removed: next] [added: current] decade, particularly in support of Columbia-class production.
[removed: To reach our objective,] [added: Along with strong contributions from the states of Connecticut and Rhode Island,] we continue to invest in the training and tools necessary for our employees to be prepared to deliver these next-generation submarines to the Navy on time and on budget.
We are also working with our network of [removed: more than] [added: approximately] 3,000 suppliers — mostly small businesses — to [removed: provide for] [added: support] concurrent production of the two submarine programs.
We have a total of [removed: 11] [added: 10] ships in backlog scheduled for delivery through 2027.
Our investment included development of a new wing, new avionics,
We expect the G700 to enter service in the fourth quarter of 2022 pending certification from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
In October 2021, we introduced two new aircraft, the ultra-long-range, ultra-large-cabin G800 and large-cabin G400, completing a nearly two-decade effort to develop an all-new family of Gulfstream aircraft.
Both aircraft combine our industry-leading high-speed range and efficiency, safety enhancements, and our advanced Symmetry Flight Deck.
The G800 is Gulfstream’s longest-range aircraft, with an 8,000 nautical mile range at Mach 0.85, and it is expected to enter service in 2023 pending FAA certification.
The G400 is a clean-sheet design developed in concert with the G500 and G600, thus expanding the commonality across the Gulfstream family of aircraft.
Expected to enter service in 2025 pending FAA certification, the G400 will join a market segment in which Gulfstream has not participated for several decades.
Accordingly, the program has received the highest possible rating from the government’s Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS).

We have completed fielding these vehicles for the first of nine Army brigades, as well as for the Army’s Ranger Regiment.
In addition, coordination continues with the Army for next-generation upgrades to the platform and new uses for the vehicle.
We are expanding our platform capabilities through continued investment in robotic and autonomous vehicle technology.
We have the Multi-Utility Tactical Transport (MUTT), a semi-autonomous robotic platform that can be equipped with an array of modular mission payloads for use alongside dismounted soldiers.
This platform was selected as the U.S. Army’s first robotic vehicle program of record and is officially designated as the Small Multipurpose Equipment Transport (SMET).
Additionally, we have the Tracked Robot 10-ton (TRX) prototype, a medium-sized, semi-autonomous combat vehicle that enables critical battlefield roles, such as direct and indirect fire, autonomous resupply, reconnaissance and other battlefield missions.

Under the amended contract, we have received progress payments in 2020 and 2021 that have reduced the program’s unbilled balance to $2 billion.
A separate tracked vehicle contract that was signed in 2010 has experienced an unbilled receivable build-up over the past year while we work to resolve concerns that were raised by the customer on certain aspects of the program.
As a result, the balance on this program has grown to $1.3 billion.

(b)Reflects the cumulative effects of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, and ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which we adopted on January 1, 2018.
Effective December 31, 2020, for segment reporting purposes, we reorganized our Information Technology and Mission Systems operating segments into a single segment: Technologies.
This reorganization reflects our evolving strategic focus on the combined capabilities of the businesses to meet the customer demand for large-scale, end-to-end highly engineered solutions.
Our company now has four operating segments: Aerospace, Marine Systems, Combat Systems and Technologies.
We refer to the latter three collectively as our defense segments.
Prior-period segment information has been restated for this change.
Some prior-year amounts have been reclassified among financial statement accounts or disclosures to conform to the current-year presentation.
Use of Estimates and Other Uncertainties. The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has caused significant disruptions to national and global economies and government activities.
Our businesses have been designated as critical infrastructure by the U.S. government and many non-U.S. governments and, as such, are required to stay open.
Within our Aerospace segment, quarantine and travel restrictions in connection with the pandemic have impacted the timing of aircraft deliveries, and the economic consequences of COVID-19 have impacted demand.
Our defense business has also experienced disruptions, such as customer site closures, travel restrictions and social distancing requirements, which have impacted contract execution.
