Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions has had recent success with the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) and is promoting its ship-borne helicopter handling systems at this year’s IMDEX Asia.

Trevor Schriver, sales and marketing manager at Curtiss-Wright, told IMDEX Asia Daily News that the company has outfitted the RSN’s four 6,000t Endurance-class amphibious transport docks and six 3,200t Formidable-class multipurpose stealth frigates with the Aircraft Ship Integrated Securing and Traversing (ASIST) system for the navy’s Sikorsky S-70B helicopters.

Curtiss-Wright’s INDAL Technologies designs, develops and manufactures the system, along with another older system being used by the Royal Canadian Navy.
