Long-term strategies pay off
Rockwell Collins’ reputation for trusted innovation and keeping our promises has helped us secure major positions on many of the most significant air transport, business aviation and military platforms entering service this decade, forging a trajectory to support sustainable long-term growth.
But that’s only the start. At the heart of our success is our ability to leverage those winning technologies across targeted markets, identifying opportunities to bring solutions to new commercial and government platforms. And our track record of fulfilling our commitments and exceeding customer expectations allows us to build strong relationships that drive future business success.
Pro Line Fusion for many platforms
The features and flexibility of our Pro Line Fusion integrated avionics system have made it the avionics system of choice for business aviation, as well as commercial, military and rotary wing aircraft including Embraer’s KC-390 tanker and AgustaWestland’s innovative AW609 TiltRotor. We also continue to explore retrofit opportunities, like this year’s announcement of Pro Line Fusion for the King Air 350.

Leveraging our large format display system
Rockwell Collins’ large format display system began as the centerpiece of our Pro Line Fusion® integrated avionics system for business aviation, providing a larger viewing area and greater functionality, throughput and memory than predecessor technologies. But it quickly found its way to other platforms across our Commercial Systems and Government Systems businesses.

New technologies look ahead
In addition to our positions on new aircraft, Rockwell Collins continues to introduce new innovations for forward fit and aftermarket installation, like fiscal year 2014’s introduction of our MultiScan ThreatTrack™ weather radar and the EVS-3000 enhanced vision system.
MultiScan ThreatTrack™ weather radar
Building on our successful MultiScan™ weather radar, the new MultiScan ThreatTrack weather radar provides unprecedented atmospheric threat assessment capabilities. Our Predictive OverFlight™ technology identifies significant turbulence threats above rapidly growing thunderstorms, and it is also the first radar in the industry to feature two levels of turbulence detection to better inform flight crews’ decision-making processes. It will be debuted on American Airlines’ new Next-Generation Boeing 737 fleet.
EVS-3000 enhanced vision system
Our EVS-3000 provides pilots with the most advanced enhanced vision system in the business aviation sector. The proprietary multispectral EVS sensor allows pilots to detect outside terrain, hazards and obstacles with unprecedented accuracy for safer operations and landings, particularly in low-visibility conditions — all with lower weight and lower energy consumption. The EVS-3000 is available on head-up displays like our HGS™-3500 head-up guidance system, as well as on a head-down display.
In fiscal year 2014, we celebrated the 450th installation of our award-winning
Venue™ high-definition cabin management system for business aviation.
