Rockwell Collins hits milestones for DAGR and SAASM

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (December 13, 2006) - Rockwell Collins announced today that the company has delivered 100,000 Defense Advanced Global Positioning System Receivers (DAGR) for use by U.S. and international warfighters and has reached the 225,000 unit sales milestone for its Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM).

"These milestones demonstrate Rockwell Collins' commitment to delivering on-time, on-budget solutions to our military customers," said Greg Churchill, executive vice president and COO of Rockwell Collins Government Systems. "Our ability to accelerate production rates makes it possible to quickly equip our troops with advanced GPS technology that will improve their situational awareness while enhancing their safety."

Building upon the company's highly successful Precision Lightweight GPS Receiver (PLGR), with more than 200,000 units delivered worldwide, the Rockwell Collins DAGR incorporates five times the capabilities and functions of the PLGR while reducing the overall size, weight and power requirements. Rockwell Collins was selected for full-rate production of DAGRs in October 2003.

Primarily used by the U.S. Army, the DAGR is considered the handheld standard for GPS position, navigation and situational awareness. The receiver provides precise timing to synchronize tactical radios for the digital battlespace and includes a graphical user interface that greatly enhances the soldier's effectiveness and safety.

The Rockwell Collins SAASM is a single, tamper-resistant multi-chip security module that can be combined with other components and software into a complete GPS receiver.  The latest version of the Rockwell Collins SAASM is extremely small and consumes very little power.

Rockwell Collins was the first in the industry to receive security approval for production of the SAASM that incorporates a next-generation Precise Positioning Service (PPS) security module.
