Focused on secure, total system optimization, GE continues to develop innovative and environmentally responsible avionics solutions for military and commercial customers.
With extensive experience and expertise on commercial and business jets, helicopters, military and UAVs, we are focused on providing through-life support to fit our customers' needs to maximize the efficiency of their aircraft and crew, while being built upon standards-based open architecture.
GE Aerospace’s Digital Backbone provides an affordable and adaptable avionics system architecture that meets the needs of next-generation aircraft platforms. This digitally engineered system lowers development lifecycle costs and allows for reuse. It features:
Flexible nodal exchange points
Deterministic network switching
Full end-to-end development toolset
Designed for accuracy, connectivity, and to optimize flight paths, GE’s flight management systems consistently reduce time, fuel consumption, and emissions.
Providing customers with secure, high-speed, high-capacity data transfer systems and file servers that can be tailored to the most demanding data/audio/video applications. Our technologies include high-bandwidth networking and encryption that utilize the latest security standards.
Our broad portfolio of customizable data recorders offers a wide range of solutions for civil and military fixed and rotorcraft applications.
GE Aerospace’s Health Awareness System is an end-to-end solution that delivers proven health management solutions. The system provides a holistic picture of configuration, health, usage, and maintenance data.
GE's configurable controls and interface systems are required for today's modular and simplified vehicle system architectures. This product family is comprised of flexible remote interfacing products tailored to meet a range of applications - from distributed Input/Output (I/O) management to actuation control. Remote Interface Units (RIUs) provide a family of low cost, line replaceable items or sub-modules which are designed to be installed in remote locations, away from the main aircraft processing resource but near air-vehicle subsystem(s).
GE Aerospace provides innovative, navigational-grade Inertial Reference Units (IRU) that can be utilized for platform navigation, system stabilization, and pointing applications. Our systems are based on a proprietary inertial gyroscope technology that reduces size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) when compared to units with similar performance. GE’s IRUs are utilized on land, maritime, and airborne applications with more than 5,300 units fielded worldwide. This product family is scalable to the customer’s specific needs. Options include standard or enhanced microprocessors and embedded military Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) GPS or embedded commercial GPS receivers.
GE sets the open computing standard with its full-range of versatile and rugged embedded computing systems. We satisfy a wide-range of vehicle and mission computing applications that have been proven with the Common Core System (787 and 777X) and C-130J Communications Navigation Identification System Processor.
We offer a full portfolio of versatile and rugged embedded networking systems that scale to satisfy a wide-range of applications
GE has a long history of introducing the very latest display technology into the Aviation environment. Our modular designs enable maximum reuse with the latest design techniques to ensure delivery of world-class, affordable through-life products. GE develops products and systems that are essential in safety-critical aircraft applications for new or retrofit civil and military platforms.
GE’s control and display units are the flight crew’s primary interface for Fflight management system operations for optimal aircraft and crew performance. The units currently in production feature liquid crystal display (LCD) for long life and low power.
Pilots and passengers around the world rely on their standby instruments to get them home if the primary displays fail. GE has a long heritage in developing displays that operate reliably in the most challenging conditions on both fixed-and rotary-wing aircraft.
Our latest 4th generation Iintegrated standby instrument provides reduced weight and power consumption in a standard 3x3 inch (3ATI) format with a flexible range of custom options.
GE has a range of primary and multifunction flight displays that are stand-alone or as part of an integrated system for new or retrofit civil and military customers. Modular designs enable maximum reuse with the latest design techniques to ensure delivery of world-class, affordable through-life products.
Providing comprehensive and safe aircraft weapon integration system solutions for more than 40 years. As a leading Stores Management System (SMS) developer and manufacturer, GE is an experienced supplier to the US (Navy, USMC, Air Force, and Army) and worldwide customers (UK, Italy, Turkey, Australia, Germany, Canada, Japan, and others). Customers can take advantage of our experience and wide portfolio to meet their affordability, capability and schedule requirements.
GE’s alternative and relative navigation technology provides the guidance systems for difficult landings whether at sea, in the air, or on land. GE’s Precision Landing System provides optimized performance, maximized safety in challenging environments and consists of three main components, the electro optical (EO) grid transmitter, the EO grid detectors and the data link.
