The E-28 Arresting Gear System is the approved shore-based emergency system currently operated by the Navy and Marine Corps expeditionary airfield stations worldwide. Under the contract, Curtiss-Wright will provide a solution for replacement and retrofit of Retrieve Drive Assemblies on existing E-28 systems.
Curtiss-Wright is performing the work within its EMS Division in the Naval & Power segment, and will deliver assemblies to NAVAIR’s Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division in Lakehurst, N.J. Curtiss-Wright’s diverse arresting systems product portfolio includes energy absorbers, retractable hook cable systems, net-stanchion systems, and mobile systems to support aircraft carrier and fixed land-based arresting systems. In addition, our aftermarket business supports a strong, global installed base of more than 5,000 systems in over 72 countries.
