Curtiss-Wright’s story began at the dawn of aviation with names that defined it - Glenn Curtiss and the Wright Brothers. That legacy continues today across both air and space, where we deliver proven technologies that enable crewed aircraft, uncrewed systems, launch vehicles, and spacecraft to operate with confidence in the world’s most demanding environments.
Curtiss-Wright’s technologies are deployed across a wide range of aircraft, including the F-35 Lightning II, MV-75 FLRAA, Eurofighter Typhoon, and C-17 Globemaster, as well as unmanned aerial systems and advanced flight-test programs supporting next-generation aircraft development around the world. Curtiss-Wright technology is also deployed on NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) and dedicated launch systems supporting defense and small-satellite missions. Through these programs, we deliver critical avionics, data acquisition, power conversion, and control systems that help ensure performance where failure is not an option.
