Faga Becomes MITRE's Executive Vice President

February 24, 1998 — The MITRE Corporation's President and Chief Executive Officer Victor A. DeMarines announced the promotion of Martin C. Faga of Falls Church, VA, to Executive Vice President of the corporation. The action was taken at the Board of Trustees meeting earlier this month.

MITRE is an independent, not-for-profit systems engineering firm engaged in scientific and technical activities in the public interest. The corporation manages Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) for the Department of Defense and the Federal Aviation Administration and has corporate offices in Northern Virginia and Bedford, Massachusetts. Faga will be based at the company's facilities in Reston, VA.

In his new role, Mr. Faga will function as the deputy to MITRE's President and CEO, and as director of the company's Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence FFRDC operated for the Department of Defense.

Most recently, Faga was Senior Vice President and General Manager of MITRE's Center for Integrated Intelligence Systems, one of the corporation's three operating units under its DOD FFRDC. The Center serves Department of Defense and Intelligence Community sponsors in the integration of intelligence systems from sensor through presentation to the ultimate user.

Prior to joining MITRE, Faga served from 1989 to 1993 as Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Space, where he was responsible for overall supervision of Air Force space matters, with primary emphasis on policy, strategy, and planning. At the same time he served as Director of the National Reconnaissance Office, responsible to the Secretary of Defense and the Director of Central Intelligence for the development, acquisition and operation of all U.S. satellite reconnaissance programs.

Earlier in his career, Faga was a staff member of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the House of Representatives, where he later headed the program and budget staff. Before that he served at the CIA, at MITRE and as an officer in the U. S. Air Force.

Faga holds bachelor of science (1963), and master of science (1964) degrees, both in electrical engineering, from Lehigh University.
