Contracts

GEC Avionics investment in solid state Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) technology has been directed in support of the British Aerospace Hawk 100/200 aircraft export drive. In a risk sharing contractual arrangement, BAe have selected the GEC Avionics Engine Monitor Panel (EMP) to replace a range of existing electro‐mechanical fuel and engine instruments for the export Hawk aircraft. The improved reliability, weight and power characteristics of the LCD EMP panel will aid the operational capabilities and competitiveness of the latest Hawk variant.
