Rockwell Collins has been selected by India-based GoAir to provide advanced avionics for 72 Airbus A320neo aircraft.
Deliveries are scheduled to begin later this year.
Cedar Rapids-based Rockwell Collins will supply its MultiScan ThreatTrack weather radar. The system goes beyond hail and lightning prediction within a thunderstorm cell and alerts pilots to significant threats adjacent to or above the cell.
ThreatTrack also features two levels of turbulence detection — severe and ride quality — which more accurately informs flight crews of the type of turbulence in their path.
“The advanced, reliable avionics systems selected by GoAir will translate into safe, smooth rides for passengers,” said Jim Walker, vice president and managing director, Asia Pacific for Rockwell Collins, in a news release.
Rockwell Collins also will provide GoAir with its GLU-925 multimode receiver (MMR), the first certified global positioning system landing system receiver that enables navigation in regions without robust ground-based navigation or weather radar networks.
