               INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT


Item 3.     Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

       The following documents are incorporated herein by reference:

       (a)  (i)  the TRW Inc. ("TRW") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
            ended December 31, 1994;

            (ii)  the financial statements required by Form 11-K for The TRW
            Canada Stock Savings Plan (the "Plan") for the year ended December
            31, 1994, attached as Exhibit 28(b) to the TRW Annual Report on Form
            10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994;

       (b)  (i)  the description of TRW capital stock contained in Exhibit 4(a)
            to TRW's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
            1988; and


            (ii)  the Rights Agreement between TRW and Bankers Trust Company
            filed as Exhibit 2 to TRW's Form 8-A Registration Statement dated
            December 21, 1988.  (National City Bank, Cleveland, Ohio, serves as
            successor Rights Agent pursuant to the terms of the Rights
            Agreement.)

       Until TRW files a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement
indicating that all securities offered have been sold, or deregistering all such
securities which remain unsold, all documents subsequently filed by TRW or the
Plan pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act shall
be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to
be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

       Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

       The legality of the purchase of shares of TRW Common Stock, par value
$0.625 per share, under the Plan and the purchase of participation interests in
the Plan have been passed upon by Martin A. Coyle, Esq., 1900 Richmond Road,
Cleveland, Ohio 44124.  Mr. Coyle, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and
Secretary of TRW, is a shareholder of TRW and also a Director and the President
of TRW Canada Limited.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

       The Ohio Revised Code and TRW's Regulations provide for indemnification
of TRW's Directors and officers in a variety of circumstances, which may include
liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.  TRW maintains insurance
indemnifying Directors and officers in certain cases and with certain deductible
limits.  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to Directors and officers, TRW has been advised
that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of
1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

       Not applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits.

       The "Exhibit Index" on page 6 is hereby incorporated by reference.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

A.     Undertaking Pursuant to Rule 415.

       The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

       (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

              (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
       Securities Act of 1933;

              (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
       after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most
       recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
       aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in
       the Registration Statement;

              (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
       of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
       any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

       Provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement.

       (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

       (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.

B.     Undertaking Regarding Documents Subsequently Filed Under the Exchange
Act.

       The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C.     Undertaking Regarding Indemnification.

       Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Re:      The TRW Canada Stock Savings Plan


Gentlemen:

As General Counsel of TRW Inc. ("TRW"), I am delivering this opinion in
connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration
Statement") to effect the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, of shares of common stock of TRW ("Shares") and related participation
interests to be offered under The TRW Canada Stock Savings Plan ("Plan").

I am familiar with the Plan, as amended to date; the trust agreement between TRW
Canada Limited ("TRW Canada") and The Royal Trust Company and United States
Trust Company of New York as co-trustees (the "Trust Agreement"); the
proceedings taken by TRW Canada in connection with the adoption of the Plan; the
proposed issuance and sale of participation interests in the Plan; and the
proposed offering of Shares under the Plan.  I am also familiar with the records
relating to the organization of TRW and TRW Canada including their respective
Articles of Incorporation and amendments thereto, and Regulations and By-Laws,
respectively, and I have examined, or caused to be examined, such other records,
documents and instruments as in my judgment are necessary or appropriate to
enable me to render the opinion expressed below.



<PAGE>   2

TRW Inc.
Board of Administration
March 27, 1995

Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the Shares will, when acquired
by the participants pursuant to the terms of the Plan, be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable.  I am further of the opinion that the participation
interests in the Plan, created in accordance with the Plan and Trust Agreement,
will, when acquired by the participants pursuant to the terms of the Plan, be
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

Insofar as the foregoing opinion involves matters relating to the laws of Canada
or a Province thereof, I have relied upon the opinion of Messrs. Cassels,
Mitchell of Toronto, Canada.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement  and to the reference to me in the Registration Statement and in the
Plan documents prepared pursuant to the requirements of Part I of Form S-8.

Sincerely,


/s/ Martin A. Coyle

                          Form S-8 Registration Statement
                 ------------------------------------------

                 We are delivering this opinion in connection with the
preparation and filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission of a
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of shares of common
stock of TRW Inc. and related participation interests to be offered under The
TRW Canada Stock Savings Plan (the "Plan").  We are of the opinion that:

             The rights and/or interests of the participants in the
             Plan, when acquired by participants pursuant to the
             terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and
             nonassessable, under the laws of Canada and the
             Province of Ontario.

                 We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit
to the Registration Statement and to the reference to us in the Registration
Statement and in the Plan documents prepared pursuant to the requirements of
Part 1 of Form S-8.


                                           Yours very truly,

                                           /s/ Walter G. Cassels
