Curtiss-Wright Awarded $31 Million IDIQ Contract by the U.S. Navy to Supply Airborne Mission Processors for the Triton UAV

INTERNATIONAL PARIS AIR SHOW 2025, Le Bourget, Paris, France (Hall 3-D28) – June 16, 2025 – Curtiss-Wright Corporation today announced that it will provide Airborne Mission Processors (AMP) and AMP spare parts in support of PMA-262 Persistent Maritime Unmanned Aircraft Systems' MQ-4C Triton aircraft and PMA-290 Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft under a $31 million firm-fixed-price indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract awarded by the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC). The contract also includes Total Lifecycle Management™, training, and engineering services in support of the AMP. Work on the contract will be performed by Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions division and is scheduled to run through September 2029.

"We are very proud to have been selected by the Naval Surface Warfare Center to provide our rugged airborne mission processor technology, total lifecycle management and support services for Naval manned and unmanned aircraft programs,” said Brian Perry, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions Division. “The AMP system was derived from the legacy Airborne Mission Management System previously qualified and deployed on the Triton UAV platform. Through only minor enhancements, Curtiss-Wright was able to significantly increase processing capability in the aircraft, enabling enhanced ISR features, and the ability to host Navy Minotaur software platforms.”

The AMP features Curtiss-Wright’s industry-leading MOSA modules, including the VPX6-1959 single board computer, CHAMP-XD2M High Memory Capacity Multi-Core HPEC Module, VPX6-684 Network Switch, and VPX6-4943 GPGPU board, as well as the front panels, fan control board, and chassis.

Curtiss-Wright previously announced that it is providing and servicing MOSA-based Keyed Broad Area Maritime Surveillance Airborne Recorder (K-BAR) Network Attached Storage (NAS) solutions supporting MQ-4C Triton and future PMA-290 aircraft, including chassis, docking stations, removable storage modules and lab cable sets.
