Northrop Grumman's chief executive said at a conference today she's closely watching the company's ability to rapidly develop capabilities as well as seeking to ensure its capabilities align with the environment.

Speaking at a conference hosted by Citi, Kathy Warden said the company's government customer "has more resources, but also a much broader mandate so [is] still feeling very resource-constrained."

She said: "Speed is essential."

"We have to be thinking about rapid capability development," Warden said. "The two things that I'm really focused on with the team is technology insertion at speed and having relevant capability in this threat environment."

"I think we're well positioned on both fronts," she added.
