Robert Smith , executive vice president for marine systems segment at General Dynamics (NYSE: GD), will serve as acting president of the Reston, Virginia-based defense contractor’s Bath Iron Works subsidiary until a permanent replacement is appointed, WMTW reported Friday.

Smith named head of General Dynamics’ marine systems business in 2019.
Prior to that role, he was president of the company’s Jet Aviation subsidiary.
