Rockwell Collins changes NLX name; marks next step of integration effort

ORLANDO, Fla. (December 07, 2004) - Rockwell Collins announced today that the integration of the simulation and training capabilities attained last year with the acquisition of NLX has progressed well and the business will now be recognized as Rockwell Collins Simulation & Training Solutions.

Through this business, Rockwell Collins provides a wide range of training systems, upgrades, modifications, curriculum development, electronically delivered learning, engineering and technical services for many military and commercial platforms.  These platforms include the Bombardier Challenger 300 simulator, the U.S. Army’s Additional Black Hawk Flight Simulator (ABHFS) Program, the U.S. Navy’s P-3C Visual System Modifications and E-2C Hawkeye Weapon System Trainer, and the B-1 and B-52 Training Systems for the U.S. Air Force.

“Our integration progress reflects the increased level of global support we are now positioned to provide our customers,” said Tony Syme, vice president, Simulation & Training Solutions for Rockwell Collins.

“The integrated development of avionics and simulation systems creates powerful new synergies that deliver more innovative solutions,” said Collins Aviation Services senior vice president and general manager Harry Gregory.  “Rockwell Collins is leveraging technology and open systems architecture to deliver simulation and training solutions that meet or exceed customer requirements.”

Rockwell Collins acquired NLX in December 2003.
