Airplane Developer Looks to Protect ISR Data with Encryption
While developing a new intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) system, a large aerospace developer approached Curtiss-Wright for commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) equipment that had to fit into a space-constrained, propeller-driven aircraft.
Robust and Reliable Flight Test Instrumentation System Deployed on Hypersonic Test Bed
A company that was developing their own hypersonic vehicle for use as a technology test bed wanted a flight test instrumentation (FTI), recording, and transmission system.
Bringing Near Real-Time Threat Identification and Location Information to the Entire Coalition
This case study is the application example of CESMO, which a white paper has been written on. CESMO is a digital protocol that NATO has adopted to support EW operations in order to connect the sensors on a battlefield, ultimately providing enhanced situational awareness to coalition...
USFF Systems for Computing and Networking Onboard eVTOL Aircraft
Multiple eVTOL aircraft developers from America and Europe have come to Curtiss-Wright seeking rugged COTS hardware to be used for prototyping as they develop their new aircraft platforms for production.
Flexible I/O System Design Reduced Cost, SWaP, and Time
A leading prime contractor of airborne imaging systems came to Curtiss-Wright with a 3U OpenVPX™ system architecture design problem they were doubtful could be solved, given the project’s constraints.
Successful Integration of a Launcher Video Telemetry System Using COTS Equipment
Réaltra was awarded a contract to develop a launcher video telemetry system (LVTS) that will provide the on-board live video telemetry for a launcher that is anticipated to fly in 2021.
Meeting Local Content Requirements with a Modular Motion Control Solution
For programs with local content requirements, partnering with a supplier that has a global presence and proven experience meeting regional requirements can give your proposal a competitive edge. This case study examines how one customer did just that for a major ground vehicle program.
Large Aircraft Rapidly Deploys Customizable Mission Recording System
A manufacturer of a large military aircraft required a mission recording system to collect engineering data from around the aircraft and store it on a recorder for post-mission analysis.
New Commercial Airliner Rapidly Deploys Customizable Mission Recording System
A new aircraft development program wanted to deploy the most modern avionics systems available to ensure the aircraft could compete against the newest on the market.
Modified COTS Solution Extends Platform Lifespan and Mission Capabilities
Aerospace integrators are often called upon to upgrade aging airframes with new electronic payloads to extend their lifespan and mission capabilities. One such integrator turned to Curtiss-Wright when upgrading a fleet of maritime patrol and surveillance aircraft for a European...
