PARIS AIR SHOW. Curtiss-Wright announced at the now-underway Paris Air Show that it won a $31 million ID/IQ contract with the U.S. Navy to supply airborne mission processors (AMPs) for the Triton uncrewed aerial system (UAS). 

DAVIDSON, North Carolina. Curtiss-Wright Corporation won an $80 million contract from the U.S. Air Force to provide high-speed data acquisition system (HSDAS) hardware and associated services, the company announced in a statement.

By applying electronics thermal-management expertise with a range of proven module and chassis-level cooling technologies – such as conduction, forced air, air-flow-through (AFT), and liquid-flow-through (LFT) – advanced processing and communications solutions can operate in harsh extended temperature environments and deliver the new capabilities enabled by artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) to the tactical edge.

ASHBURN, Virginia. Romanian firm Pro Optica chose Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions to supply turret drive stabilization system (TDSS) components for the ANUBIS 3.0 remotely controlled weapons station, the company announced in a statement. 

NASHVILLE, Tennessee. ACE Aeronautics chose Ultra PCS and Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions to supply an integrated cockpit voice recorder (CVR), flight data recorder (FDR), and health and usage monitoring system (HUMS) for UH-60L Black Hawk helicopters operated by foreign militaries, the companies announced in a statement.

The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) is investing heavily in airborne attritable systems as a cost-effective approach to project force and influence. The DoD’s directive to use modular open systems approach (MOSA)-based solutions positions commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) component vendors to meet the form factor, weight, and cost limit requirements of airborne drones uncrewed aerial systems (UASs). This move toward lower-cost and more easily replaced uncrewed systems opens up new opportunities for suppliers of COTS components.

Network-attached storage (NAS) systems for mission-critical applications often rely on a redundant array of independent disk (RAID) configurations to mitigate data loss from disk failures, improve data throughput speed, and maximize storage efficiency. Users can effectively implement RAID to optimize their NAS systems and ensure critical data protection in deployed environments by carefully considering storage capacity, performance, and platform requirements.
