Curtiss-Wright Corporation (NYSE: CW) announced that it has been awarded a $10.5 million contract by Northrop Grumman Corporation to provide an upgraded Radar Signal Processing (RSP) solution for use in the Joint Surveillance and Target Attack Radar System (Joint STARS) program. The initial portion of the contract, for $5.1 million, was awarded for the Joint STARS Prime Mission Equipment (PME) Diminishing Material Source (DMS). An additional $5.4 million was awarded to enhance the RSP solution so that it meets advanced radar processing capacity requirements necessary to support future radar performance needs.

“Curtiss-Wright is committed to its leadership role in developing advanced products that support critical defense applications such as the Joint STARS program,” said Martin R. Benante, CEO and Chairman of Curtiss-Wright Corporation. “Our embedded computing technology will support the aircraft’s advanced radar signal processing needs, which in turn provides improved efficiency for our military personnel.”

The U.S. Air Force’s E-8 Joint STARS aircraft is the world’s premier ground surveillance platform, which is able to track slow moving or stationary targets at sea, on the ground or hugging the terrain in slow flight. The Air Force’s Radar Airborne Signal Processor (RASP) system performs the radar signal processing capabilities of the Joint STARS aircraft, enabling its ability to process data that results in the ability to locate targets. The contract is part of a larger upgrade to the RASP system used in Joint STARS.

Curtiss-Wright’s Motion Control segment will design and manufacture the Radar Signal Processing (RSP) solution at its San Diego, CA facility.
