Curtiss-Wright (CW)

The company operates through three main segments: Naval & Power, Aerospace & Industrial, and Defense Electronics. Naval & Power is its largest revenue contributor and supplies equipment such as reactor coolant pumps, valves, seals, control rod drive mechanisms, secondary propulsion technology, motors, generators, and fastening systems. These products are used in naval defence platforms, commercial nuclear power facilities, and other mission-critical energy applications.

Curtiss-Wright’s Aerospace & Industrial segment provides actuation, sensors, surface-treatment services, industrial vehicle components, and control technologies for commercial aerospace and general industrial markets. Its Defense Electronics segment focuses on embedded computing, communications, data acquisition, and weapons-handling systems used in military aircraft, ground vehicles, naval vessels, and other defence platforms.

The company’s customer base is concentrated in the United States, with additional operations and sales in the United Kingdom and other international markets. Curtiss-Wright is distinctive for combining long-cycle defence and power programmes with niche industrial technologies, giving it exposure to both government-funded platforms and commercial capital spending. Its products often represent small but essential parts of larger systems, which can support durable customer relationships and high technical barriers to entry.
