[Avionics Magazine 11-30-2016] IMP Aerospace has selected Rockwell Collins’ Flight2 integrated avionics system for the Chilean Navy’s cockpit modernization program for its P-3 Orion Maritime Patrol Aircraft.

The Flight2 integrated avionics suite of Communications, Navigation and Surveillance (CNS) equipment seamlessly integrates new-generation avionics with legacy sensors, radios, autopilot and aircraft systems. Flight2 features advanced displays and an integrated military/civil Flight Management System (FMS). The system is currently flying on more than 900 fixed-wing aircraft, according to Rockwell Collins.

IMP’s Halifax, Nova Scotia facilities in Canada will perform the aircraft installation, integration and design work. Rockwell Collins will provide dedicated in-country, on-site field service engineering and logistics support to IMP Aerospace during the aircraft modifications and test.
