IG 'K H AEG1s MAINTENANCE DIVISION Navy engineers spent years developing what is now known as AEGIS. As with any umachine H it is TY, not just built and used, it has many years of devel- : opm nt and testing to insure that it is flawless be- fore being delivered to the real world. Hence came AEGIS Maintenance Division KAMJ on USS NORTGN SOUND. A complete new deckhouse was added to house all of the sophisticated equipment known as AEGIS. Over a 12 year period teams of civilians and naval per- sonnel were tasked to Hmake it work, and make it work better than any other weapon system the world has known.H The failures and successes of today's AEGIS fleet were first Norton Sound's. The years 8 uncountable manhours that it took have paid off. AEGIS works so well that there is no longer a need for Norton Sound as a test platform at sea. u AM DIVISION OFFICER LTJ G CRANDALL TOMAHAWK PROJECT AEGIS MAITENAN CE AEGIS MANAGEMENT FCCSISWBHUED Eccs MICEK DSC BRUNGARDT
