Who We Are
Curtiss-Wright's Defense Solution division is a trusted, proven leader, delivering superior products and services that meet the defense and aerospace industries' toughest challenges with best-in-class value. In 2017, Curtiss-Wright relocated its Avionics, Sensors & Controls and Industrial Business Units into a brand new, purpose-built 160,000 ft2facility at Bournemouth International Airport.
The state-of-the-art facility has extensive design and manufacturing capabilities as well as in-house environmental stress screening. The facility is committed to quality and excellence in manufacturing for our flight recorder, air data computer, video management systems, computing systems, mission displays and video recorder products.
As the design center of excellence for flight recorders and air data computers, the units had to be lightweight and small crash survivability requirements exceeding the existing standards for commercial aircraft.
