Though no one was killed in either of these incidents, many consultants believe that it's only a matter of time before a shoulder-fired missile brings down a business airliner, leading to a whole bunch of civilian deaths. The risk of such a catastrophe prompted the Department of Homeland Security to conduct a three-yr examine to test the feasibility of putting in missile defense programs, tailored from navy applications, on all turbojet aircraft used in scheduled air service. One of the methods included in that research is Northrop Grumman’s GuardianTM Solution for Industrial Airplanes.
