As unmanned vehicles become more powerful and complex, their electronics payloads must adapt to match new mission objectives. This often forces aerospace and defense system integrators to push for reductions in size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C).

When 30-year-old airborne surveillance and control equipment mounted on the underside of an aging helicopter required replacement, the manufacturer needed a partner they could rely on to provide mission-critical processing technology in harsh environments.

A customer wished to move to the latest and greatest technology without having to change pinouts or cables on the aircraft.

A system integrator required small form factor (SFF) mission processors, network switches, and network-attached storage (NAS) with government-approved encryption for UUV operations. Read about the solution we developed here.

A European system developer needed to upgrade their sonar system. Read about the ITAR-free, CE, RoHS, and REACH compliant rugged solution Curtiss-Wright developed.

This case study describes a solution to detect and locate SIGINT signals of interest quickly and meet SWaP-constraints of the airborne platform.

Through expertise in designing SWaP-optimized systems, Curtiss-Wright designed the flight control computer with alternate mounting technique, which resulted in significant improvements in thermal performance, system reliability, and system performance.

An extended-service marine patrol aircraft required a signal processing and display computer to provide an upgrade in capability and performance. Learn about the solution Curtiss-Wright provided.

SDR requires high-performance signal acquisition building blocks. Curtiss-Wright offers a wide range of rugged signal acquisition products ready for integration with processing and Radio Frequency (RF) electronics for deployment.

Fire Control and Vehicle Computer applications are more demanding than ever, performing tasks faster with extreme accuracy required as standard. Read the case study!

Capturing video feeds from several sensors and making that data available to the user is required for many applications. Usually, this data is critical for mission completion, post-mission analysis, and personal safety.

This case study describes Curtiss-Wright's optimized, scalable, flexible and affordable Advanced Mission Management System for the MQ-4C Triton Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS), designed and built to meet the U.S. Navy's maritime surveillance needs.
