Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions Division announced today it has secured a $7.7 million firm-fixed-price IDIQ contract from Tyonek Aircraft Overhaul, LLC, a subsidiary of Tyonek Services Group, Inc. and Tyonek Native Corporation. Under this agreement, Curtiss-Wright will supply a MIL-STD-1553 data communications interface variant of its Fortress™ combined cockpit voice recorder (CVR) and flight data recorder (FDR) for integration into the U.S. Coast Guard’s MH-65E Dolphin and MH-60T Jayhawk helicopter fleets. The contract includes a one-year base period with the option to extend for an additional four years.
The Fortress recorder, designed for both military rotorcraft and fixed-wing platforms, offers expandable data acquisition capabilities that can evolve with customer requirements, reinforcing Curtiss-Wright’s position as a key provider of advanced flight data recording systems.
