Northrop Grumman Achieves Production Approval for New System to Enable Safer Aircraft Carrier Landings
Northrop Grumman Corporation has received U.S. Navy approval to begin production of a new digitally-controlled arrestment system that will dramatically upgrade the critical process of "catching" aircraft landing on carriers.
The Advanced Recovery Control (ARC) system uses a precision digital control system to replace the existing maintenance-intensive system that used chains, cams and levers to close the constant run-out valve.
