...Alaska, Litton klystron tubes generate radar beams for the Distant Early Warning line. At almost every sizable U.S. airport, Litton antennas help control flights; in universities, Litton digital desk computers solve calculus jawbreakers. Litton claims to be the nation's biggest seller of desk calculating machines, the broadest supplier of TV replacement transformers (more than 900 different models), one of the two largest makers (along with American Bosch Arma) of inertial guidance systems for missiles...
