Curtiss-Wright Corporation (NYSE: CW) today announced that it
has received a $27 million contract award from the Canadian
Commercial Corporation (CCC) for the supply of Aircraft Ship
Integrated Securing and Traversing (ASIST) systems. Under the
agreement, Curtiss-Wright’s facility based in Mississauga, Ontario,
Canada will provide its critical aircraft handling systems and
support to the U.S. Naval Air Warfare Center for use on
Constellation Class Frigates (FFG-62). The recent award is part of
a five-year indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ)
contract, potentially valued at nearly $100 million.
“We are pleased to have been selected by CCC to continue to
provide our experience and expertise as a leading supplier of
integrated shipboard helicopter handling systems operating at
extreme seas conditions,” said Lynn M. Bamford, Chair and CEO of
Curtiss-Wright Corporation. “This award reflects our commitment to
provide the most advanced and reliable aircraft handling systems to
support the safe landing and traversing of Naval manned aircraft
for the U.S. Navy and allied forces.”
“Canadian expertise in helicopter landing systems is at the
forefront of aviation safety and innovation. The success of
Curtiss-Wright’s technologies reinforces Canada’s position as a
global leader in this critical area of aerospace technology,” said
Diane Montambault, Vice President of Contract Management and
Operations, CCC.
Curtiss-Wright is a leading manufacturer of naval helicopter
handling systems, undersea sensor handling, and ship aviation
support systems for large and complex naval defense programs, and
has secured contracts globally supporting navies in Australia,
Canada, Chile, India, Singapore, Spain, Turkey and the United
States.
Curtiss-Wright’s ASIST system is a proven free-deck landing
system that enables helicopter landings to be made with limited
human interaction in extreme sea environments. During descent,
ASIST's precision Helicopter Position Sensing Equipment system
continuously tracks and monitors the exact position of the
aircraft, relative to the designated landing area and displays it
to the pilot through a series of visual landing cues. In addition
to supplying the U.S. Navy with the ASIST system, Curtiss-Wright
and CCC have partnered on numerous contracts with the U.S. military
over the past 40 years for hardware components, equipment, and
systems including the RAST (Recovery Assist, Secure and Traverse)
shipboard system for helicopters.
Curtiss-Wright is performing the work within its EMS division
within the Naval & Power segment. For more information on
