Aerosonic, Korea Aerospace Contract

A division of Aerosonic Corp. received a $7.5 million order from Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) to supply air data systems, the companies said. Aerosonic, Clearwater, Fla., said its Avionics Specialties subsidiary will supply air data systems that include its integrated multifunction probe (IMFP) and related equipment for the production of KAI's T50 military training aircraft. Shipments to KAI are set to begin in September. Aerosonic said its IMFP provides angle of attack, air data sensing and pressure sensing for military aircraft in one probe, reducing the flight management system complexity on military aircraft. The system is currently installed on the T50 trainer as well as the F16 Block 60 jet fighter and the M346 military trainer.More
