PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- Curtiss-Wright Corporation (NYSE: CW) announced it has been awarded a multi-million dollar contract by ASC AWD Shipbuilder Pty. Ltd., on behalf of the Air Warfare Destroyer (AWD) Alliance, to supply Aircraft Ship Integrated Secure and Traverse (ASIST) helicopter handling systems and modular lightweight tracks for three Hobart Class ships for the Royal Australian Navy. Curtiss-Wright Flow Control will perform the work at its facility in Ontario, Canada with initial deliveries scheduled to begin in late 2009. The total contract value, including all follow-on options, is expected to be in excess of $15 million. The contract contains an option for a fourth shipset of equipment with a potential award in 2009.

"Curtiss-Wright is very pleased to continue its support of the Australian Navy's aviation operations and to work with ASC on this exciting new ship program," said Martin R. Benante, CEO and Chairman of Curtiss-Wright Corporation. "The supply of these helicopter handling systems demonstrates our continuing engineering expertise in providing improved capability through innovative equipment designs and overall value through operational efficiency."

The ASIST system is a state-of-the-art deck handling solution for shipboard helicopter operations. It integrates the functions required for landing and on-deck operations to stow large ship-borne helicopters. Using the ASIST system, all deck handling operations can be accomplished without the need for personnel on the flight deck. The ASIST system enables safe helicopter handling day or night, even in adverse weather and sea conditions. The system will initially operate with the Australian Navy legacy S-70B helicopters and will be compatible with future helicopter designs.

The AWD program will provide the Royal Australian Navy with one of the world's most capable all-purpose warships. The three AWD Hobart Class ships will provide an advanced air defense system capable of engaging enemy aircraft and missiles at ranges in excess of 150km. The AWD ships will include a helicopter for surveillance and response to support key warfare areas as a part of their core capabilities.

Curtiss Wright Flow Control Company announced today that its SWANtech business unit has been selected by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to participate in its Gearbox Reliability Collaborative (GRC) which is aimed at improving reliability and durability of gear boxes on wind turbines.

The GRC allows gearbox manufacturers, bearing manufacturers, wind turbine owner/operators, and wind turbine manufacturers to team up for joint projects that address specific issues on wind turbine gearboxes. The primary means of investigation will be through full-scale testing and analysis of actual gearboxes, both in the field at the Xcel Ponnequin wind farm and in the NREL 2.5 MW dynamometer test facility.

SWANtech's SWANwindT condition and health monitoring system will provide overall insight into the condition and health of the gearbox and wind turbine drive train components. The system will monitor and provide early detection of component wear and lubricant condition and be capable of indentifying how stress from loading can contribute to part fatigue.

"We are very pleased to have the opportunity to participate and contribute to the GRC because of the profound value it could have on the future of improving the reliability and availability of wind turbines," said SWANtech President Ralph Genesi.
