Space Data Acquisition

Meeting Mission Assurance Requirements more cost Effectively

Curtiss-Wright's commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) data acquisition, video, and transmission products combine the cost savings of commercial designs with innovative radiation-tolerant strategies to deliver trusted systems at up to 75% lower cost than custom designs. Reduce size, weight, and power (SWaP) demands with custom modules that eliminate the need for separate avionics boxes and allow for efficient management of power budgets. Our space COTS and Smart Backplane products have been proven on multiple space applications, including EASA Vega-C, NASA Orion SLS & CRV, Boeing CST-100 Starliner, SpaceX Falcon 9 and Dragon, ESA IXV, ULA Delta V, and Rocketlab Electron.
