  Collins Aerospace wins T-X subsystem contracts

  Beth Stevenson, London - Jane's Defence Weekly Boeing has contracted Collins Aerospace to provide the Aces 5 ejection seat and an integrated landing gear system for the T-X trainer aircraft. Aces 5 provides passive head and neck protection, arm and leg flail prevention, and a load-compensating catapult rocket that varies its thrust based on the weight of the user, Collins says. The landing gear includes structure, actuation, dressings, hydraulics, and wheels and brakes, and is designed to lower maintenance costs while improving operational performance. “Collins Aerospace is honoured to be a supplier for Boeing in support of the US Air Force's next-generation trainer programme and proud to provide a host of integral content, including our Aces 5 ejection seat and fully integrated landing gear system,” John Fyfe, air force programmes director for Collins Aerospace, said. https://www.janes.com/article/86144/collins-aerospace-wins-t-x-subsystem-contracts

  Harris Corporation Awarded Contract to Support Boeing’s MQ-25 Unmanned Tanker for the US Navy

  Highlights: Onboard computer provides superior processing capacity and enhanced situational awareness Processor, based on advanced open systems and COTS, allows for faster and easier upgrades Reaffirms Harris' strategy to leverage open systems processors into new platforms Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS) has been awarded a contract by The Boeing Company to partner with Boeing AvionX in supplying the mission management open systems processor for the MQ-25 unmanned aerial refueling program. “Harris and Boeing have invested substantial R&D to develop affordable, high-performance solutions that allow for faster and easier upgrades,” said Ed Zoiss, president, Harris Electronic Systems. “This contract reaffirms Harris' strategy to leverage open systems processors into new platforms.” The mission management processor is based on an advanced open systems architecture solution and commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technology. The mission management processor manages sensor and communications functions on the MQ-25, providing the onboard processing capacity necessary to support advanced computing needs. Harris will provide hardware and firmware in conjunction with Boeing's open systems architecture solution. The MQ-25 is the U.S. Navy's first operational carrier-based unmanned aircraft and is designed to provide a much-needed refueling capability. The contract supports Boeing's engineering and manufacturing development program to provide four MQ-25 aircraft to the U.S. Navy for Initial Operational Capability by 2024. Harris has been a supplier to Boeing since the 1980s on a wide range of military aircraft, munition, and satellite programs. This latest contract will continue job growth for Harris in Florida, which is a supplier of mission management processors to Boeing and other major aircraft programs. “The MQ-25 program is vital because it will help the U.S. Navy extend the range of the carrier air wing, and Boeing and our industry team is all-in on delivering this capability,” said Dave Bujold, Boeing's MQ-25 program director. “The work we're doing is also foundational for the future of Boeing – where we're building autonomous systems from seabed to space.” https://www.harris.com/press-releases/2019/05/harris-corporation-awarded-contract-to-support-boeings-mq-25-unmanned-tanker
