RAST is a helicopter handling system that fully integrates all of the functions required to safely operate and stow large ship-borne helicopters. In addition to enabling safe launch and recovery, RAST facilitates the securing, maneuvering and hangaring of helicopters, day or night, even in adverse weather and sea conditions up to sea state 5.

“Curtiss-Wright has been providing components to Sikorsky for a number of years and is very pleased to be working on this exciting new helicopter program,” said Dave Adams, President of Curtiss-Wright Controls. “The RAST system, which is in use with navies world-wide, continues to prove its complex capabilities and best value.”

The RAST system is a state-of-the-art deck handling solution for shipboard helicopter operations and is currently in use by a number of navies around the world including those of the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, Spain and Taiwan. The helicopter installed probe forms an integral part of the securing and handling system by providing the structural attachment point between the ship-installed RAST system and the helicopter.

The H-92 helicopter, to be designated the CH-148 CYCLONE in Canadian service, is a marine-capable version of Sikorsky’s successful S-92 helicopter. It was selected in 2004 following an open and extended competition, to replace the vintage SH-3 SEA KING helicopters currently in operation aboard Canadian naval vessels. Shipboard trials with the CYCLONE are currently scheduled for early 2008 with the first production helicopter to be delivered later in the year.

Work for this contract will be performed at Curtiss-Wright’s facility in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Production deliveries are scheduled from 2008 to 2010.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. February 28, 2007

Curtiss-Wright Controls, Inc. announced today that BAE SYSTEMS Electronics Ltd., prime contractor on Britain’s Astute Class Submarine Program, has exercised the option for Curtiss-Wright Controls’ Towed Array Handling System (TAHS) to be installed on the fourth submarine of the Astute Program.

The Astute Class is a new Royal Navy nuclear-powered attack submarine (SSN), which will progressively replace existing Swiftsure and Trafalgar Classes later this decade. BAE SYSTEMS Submarine Solutions is the prime contractor for the first three submarines covering design, build and preliminary in-service support and has recently been directed by the Ministry of Defense to procure long-lead items for the fourth submarine. The first submarine is scheduled for launch on June 8, 2007.

“We are proud to be a continuing part of the Astute Program,” said Dave Adams, President, Curtiss-Wright Controls, Inc. “This program positions Curtiss-Wright as the leading supplier of towed array handling systems for nuclear submarines.”

The state-of-the-art towed array sonar system is fitted with an array system, whose depth is regulated by the depth of the submarine towing it. One of the keys to the success of the submarine mission will be the ability of the towed array handling system to safely and efficiently deploy and recover the Sonar 2076 array and tow cable in all operational conditions. The first complete Astute TAHS was delivered to BAE SYSTEMS Submarine Solutions in phases over 2006 / 2007. The 2nd Boat Set has completed manufacture and is undergoing extensive factory acceptance testing; it is expected to be delivered in the second quarter of 2007.

Curtiss Wright Controls designed and developed the deployment/ handling/recovery system for the submarine’s towed array sonar system. The original contract, awarded in October 2003, included systems for the first three submarines and a follow-on option for up to three additional systems.

The fourth TAHS system under this new contract will be delivered in 2009. All work is being performed at the Curtiss-Wright Controls, Engineered Systems – Marine Defense facility in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Curtiss-Wright has been a leader in designing and manufacturing ship borne aircraft handling systems (AHS), underwater sensor handling systems and specialized structures for military customers since the early 1960s.

Charlotte, N.C. – December 20, 2005

CurtissWright Controls Inc. (CWCtls) has received its first of seven anticipated followon contracts from Northrop Grumman Ship Systems (NGSS) for the supply of Aircraft Ship Integrated Secure and Traverse (ASIST) systems and Lightweight Track equipment. These systems will be installed onboard the new, highly capable, Deepwater National Security Cutter (NSC) class platform for the U.S. Coast Guard. Northrop Grumman Corporation is building the ship at their Pascagoula, Mississippi facility, under contract from Integrated Coast Guard Systems LLP (ICGS), a joint venture of Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin.

“The Integrated Deepwater System Program is a crucial element in our nation’s Homeland Security efforts and we are proud to be part of the program” said Dave Adams, President CurtissWright Controls. “It is equally exciting to continue our working relationship with Northrop Grumman Corporation.”

The NSC will be a 418foot vessel with a 4,300ton displacement at full load when delivered and will be powered by a twin screw combined diesel and gas turbine power propulsion plant designed to travel at maximum speed of 29 knots. The NSC will include an aft launch and recovery area for two rigid hull inflatable boats, a flight deck to accommodate a range of rotary wing manned and unmanned aircraft and state of the art command and control electronics. The anticipated date of delivery for the first NSC will be in 2007.

The ASIST system is a stateoftheart deck handling solution for shipboard helicopter operations. As a truly integrated system, it provides the capability to support helicopter recovery, ondeck securing, maneuvering and deck traversing operations through a single system solution. The system performs safe helicopter securing in conditions up to and including lower sea state six without attaching external cables or requiring ondeck personnel. The ASIST is today's solution for effective support to shipboard helicopter operations in the most demanding of environmental conditions and contributes to the latest requirements for high sortie rates and optimized crew size.

ASIST was originally selected by Coast Guard personal for installation on its new aviation capable cutters in June 2004. The system will operate primarily with the Coast Guard’s new MultiMission Cutter Helicopter (MCH), which is based on the existing HH65 aircraft. In addition, the system will also be operationally compatible with the U.S. Navy’s MH60R helicopter fleet, plus the new Bell Helicopter HV911 VTOL Unmanned Air System (VUAS).

Manufacturing will begin immediately and take place at the CurtissWright Controls’ facility in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada (Indal Technologies). CurtissWright acquired Indal Technologies in March 2005, which now operates within the CurtissWright Controls Engineered Systems group of companies.

CurtissWright is a subcontractor to Northrop Grumman Ship Systems, a partner in ICGS, a joint venture of Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman. In June 2002, the U.S. Coast Guard awarded the Deepwater contract to ICGS. Deepwater is a critical multiyear, multibillion dollar program to modernize and replace the Coast Guard’s aging ships and aircraft, and improve command and control and logistics systems. It is the largest recapitalization effort in the history of the Coast Guard.
