Aviation Capital Services (ACS), a leading Russian aircraft lessor, has selected a number of Rockwell Collins’ advanced avionics, including its GLU-925 Multi-Mode Receiver (MMR), for 50 new Boeing 737 aircraft that will be operated by Aeroflot airlines.
Rockwell Collins’ GLU-925 MMR enables airlines and operators to take advantage of evolving Required Navigation Performance (RNP)/Area Navigation (RNAV) and Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) capabilities. Rockwell Collins’ MMR fulfills the requirements for aircraft navigation position source, Category III Instrument Landing System (ILS), Category I Global Positioning Landing System (GLS), accessing RNP/RNAV airspace (down to RNP Authorization Required 0.1), and it meets the GPS position and availability requirements for ADS-B Out mandates.

-
ADF-900 Automatic Direction Finder
-
CPL-920D High Frequency Digital Antenna Coupler
-
DME-900 Distance Measuring Equipment
