Disambiguation: TRW Inc. (Thompson Ramo Wooldridge Inc.) — American aerospace and defense contractor, distinct from other corporate uses of the TRW acronym.

TRW Inc. was an American aerospace and defense contractor founded in 1901 as the Cleveland Cap Screw Company, and formally incorporated as TRW Inc. in 1965 following a 1958 merger between Thompson Products and Ramo-Wooldridge Corporation. The company served as a lead contractor in development of U.S. ICBMs and Titan missiles, and was instrumental in the American space program, producing spacecraft including Pioneer probes and the Apollo lunar lander descent engine. By 2001, TRW ranked as the eighth-largest military contractor in the U.S. The company was acquired by Northrop Grumman in 2002 for $7.8 billion, ending its independent operations. While historical sources reference classified defense programs and potential involvement in UAP-related research activities conducted by TRW or its successors, publicly available sources do not provide verified details regarding the scope or nature of such involvement.
