Signs Retrofit Deal For Customer Operating MIL Helicopters, Antonov Aircraft

Becker Avionics, a provider of communication, navigation, surveillance and search & rescue equipment for airborne and ground applications, has taken another step towards increasing its presence in the Eastern Europe market. Becker Avionics landed a multi-aircraft order for the delivery of its high-quality integrated avionics packages based on the Radio Management Unit product, the "RMU-5000".

The Becker Avionics IFR "Prime-Line" package is a retrofit enhancement for the cockpit with its central Radio Management Unit (RMU-5000), remotely controlling the VHF/AM Transceiver and the VOR/LOC/GS NAV. The ADF Receiver RA3502 is also foreseen as an option. The newly certified remote Marker Receiver MKR3300 completes the up-grade package. This affordable DZUS mount retrofit equipment package was chosen by the Customers due to its small dimensions, light weight, low power consumption and easiness of installation.

Roland Becker, President & CEO stated "Eastern European interest in modernizing its fleet of civilian aircraft provides great opportunities for Becker Avionics. This "retrofit demanding" aviation market is very promising for us and Becker Avionics has seen a steadily increasing demand. He continued, "In order to support this increasing demand as well as the continued development of the Russian aviation market, Becker Avionics has formed and established 'Becker Russia' in 2007."
