Commemorating the Legacy. Showcasing the Future.

The Story of AEGIS—15 Years Later

Fifteen years ago, the Naval Engineers Journal (NEJ) published The Story of AEGIS, a landmark special edition detailing the development and impact of the AEGIS Combat System. Originally distributed at the commissioning of USS WAYNE E. MEYER (DDG-108), this edition captured the innovation, leadership, and engineering behind one of the most significant naval defense systems in history.

Now, in Spring 2025, ASNE is proud to publish an updated and expanded edition.

This new special edition will explore the evolution of AEGIS technology, its expanding role in modern naval warfare, and the challenges and opportunities ahead. With contributions from leading experts and engineers, this edition will serve as a definitive update on how AEGIS has shaped the fleet and the future of naval defense.

Align your brand with one of the most anticipated naval engineering publications of 2025. The Story of AEGIS – 15 Years Later will explore the evolution of the AEGIS Combat System over the past 15 years, providing unparalleled insight for naval professionals, engineers, and defense industry leaders.
