Martin Marietta forecasts growth from mergers and defense sales
Martin Marietta aims to leverage a merger path with rockets and satellite work as its core. The firm projects more than $1 billion in 1992 missile system revenue and about $700 million from Patriot missiles and night vision tech for F-15 and F-16 fleets. Despite defense cuts, it plans 6 percent layoffs, mostly in astronautics Denver, and reports a slim year to date profit of $269.7 million on rising revenue.
