Curtiss-Wright Corporation has been selected by SELEX Galileo to supply rugged embedded digital signal processor modules for use on Saab's new Gripen Next Generation (NG) fighter aircraft.
The contract, which runs from 2010 to 2014, is valued at $15 million, and has an estimated potential additional value of $10 million over the lifetime of the program.
"Curtiss-Wright is proud to have been selected to provide our digital signal processor technology for use on the next generation Gripen aircraft," said Martin R. Benante, Chairman and CEO of Curtiss-Wright Corporation.
"This award further demonstrates the value of our advanced technologies on a global basis."
Curtiss-Wright's digital signal processor modules will provide the radar processing for the Gripen's fire control radar system.
The company's Motion Control segment will develop the digital signal processor modules at its Ashburn, VA facility.
