Air Data Computers

Aircraft rely heavily on air data computers (ADC) to provide airspeed and altitude parameters that are essential to safe and efficient operation.
Rotorcraft experience some unique phenomena because of rotor downwash which can affect the accuracy of pressure measurements and fleets
often consist of different aircraft that can create additional logistics overheads.

High accuracy, low drift sensors can be used to provide pilots and autopilots with the information they need to travel at high altitudes safer. The
effects of rotor downwash can be alleviated with digital filtering that reduces the pneumatic noise in air pressure without adding weight like
mechanical solutions. Multiple aircraft can be fitted with identical ADCs as long as each ADC is capable of holding multiple sets of configuration
data to match the target platform.

Curtiss-Wright has developed technologies within its ADC product line to address these needs. High accuracy sensors and decades of experience
provide stable data while digital filtering technology mitigate rotor downwash effects. Fully rugged design ensures reliable operation. The needs of
diverse fleets are simplified with a single unit being usable on up to 15 different platforms through a simple pin-out selection. Curtiss-Wright has
over 40 years’ experience developing air data solutions and that knowledge helps us get you the best solution available on the market today.

Air Data History

Curtiss-Wright has been designing and manufacturing ADC products since 1976 and has an installed base of over ten thousand units. Today’s
highly configurable and reliable air data units are TSO-C106 and RTCA DO-178/254 DAL A certified on 30 aircraft platforms.

Storage Area Network

Many Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) programs have been deployed for a number of years, if not decades. Some of these
programs from the 1990’s and early 2000’s employed Fibre Channel (FC) technology to reliably transport sensor data over significant distances. With
millions of dollars and lots of time invested in FC-based sensors on military platforms, how can a system architect upgrade a legacy platform with
modern data storage and recording, but retain the FC sensors on-board? FC emulation in modern SAN products, such as those offered by Curtiss-
Wright, allows the continued use of FC-based sensors, reducing program cost and risk.

In addition to certified avionics subsystems, such as air data computers, Curtiss-Wright has developed safety certifiable COTS hardware circuit card
assemblies where AC/AMC 20-152A is the means of compliance (RTCA DO-254/EUROCAE ED-80 DAL A) with available artifacts. Thus systems, such
as mission computers and multi-function controllers, can be delivered to meet your unique requirements using proven hardware elements. This
helps you get your critical aviation systems fielded sooner.
