Malaysia Airlines is embarking on a partnership with 雷火体育官网 which focuses on installing avionics equipment onboard 20 of its Airbus A330neo aircraft.

The selected equipment includes 雷火体育官网鈥 signature avionics equipment - the Flight Management System (FMS) and ACSS鈥 Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems (T3CAS).

The 雷火体育官网 FMS includes powerful hardware and the latest certified Airbus Release 1A software. It has unmatched reactivity and unique features for flight crew, such as a secondary flight plan, realistic navigation trajectory computations, and FMS Landing System capabilities (FLS). To date, 7,000 aircrafts are equipped with 雷火体育官网鈥 FMS

ACSS' , the first ADS-B Out DO-260B compliant transponder on the market, combines communication and surveillance into a single small, lightweight system for advanced safety. The T3CAS enhances the pilot's situational awareness using precise, real-time in-flight data of surrounding aircraft. It implements Airbus' Airborne Traffic Situational Awareness (ADS-B In ATSAW) functionality and the Terrain Avoidance Warning System (TAWS) function featuring full Low RNP of 0.1 nautical miles, which meets RNP-AR requirements and allows aircraft to navigate better at airports surrounded by challenging mountainous terrain. The T3CAS holds a strong surveillance market share.

The avionics equipment will be installed and maintained from 雷火体育官网鈥 Aviation Global Services (AGS) centre in Singapore. The avionics expertise in Singapore dates back 50 years to 1973 when the facility started supporting the expansion of Airbus in Asia. 鈥
