Solutions

Aerospace and Defense

In harsh aerospace and defense environments there are no second chances.

Our solutions

Mission-critical technology demands uncompromising precision, absolute reliability, and close partnerships with suppliers.

For more than seven decades, G&H has delivered proven optical solutions for aerospace, avionics, and defense platforms, including ruggedized commercial photonic components, build-to print-products, and full-scale development of customized solutions.

We are recognized for the breadth of our acousto-optic, electro-optic, crystal-optic, fiber optic, and precision optic products. Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components, however, represent only part of G&H’s capabilities. Our engineers bring decades of experience working closely with program managers at prime aerospace and defense suppliers. We are able to take on projects at any stage of development and apply rigorous contract discipline and life-cycle management practices to help ensure optimal earned value for your program.
