Esterline CMC Electronics (CMC) has received initial orders from Hawker Beechcraft Corp. (HBC) to supply its Cockpit 4000 integrated avionics suite for 24 T6-C trainer aircraft for the Royal Moroccan air force. Morocco is the first customer to purchase HBC’s T-6C trainer, which is an upgraded version of the T-6A Texan II. The avionics suite will include an integrated avionics computer (IAC), a head-up display (HUD), up-front control panel (UFCP), six multifunction displays (MFD), inertial reference unit (IRU), digital video recorder/data transfer System (DVR/DTS) and radar altimeter (RADALT).
The Cockpit 4000 encompasses primary flight, engine and navigation displays, and was certified recently by FAA as installed on the T-6B trainer for the U.S. Navy.
