Woodward has a long-standing history of supplying electromechanical components to Moog for flight control systems in commercial and military applications.
Woodward has entered into an agreement with Moog to provide position sensors for the U.S. Army’s Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA). Bell’s next-generation tiltrotor aircraft, selected for the programme, will use Woodward’s sensors in Moog’s Pylon Conversion Actuators. The actuators enable the transition between vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) and forward flight.
Jon Geisheimer, Woodward’s Vice President and General Manager of Electromechanical Systems & Electronics, says: “Woodward has a long history of providing electromechanical components to Moog for commercial and military flight control applications, and we are excited to support Moog and the FLRAA team with our position sensor technology."
