SAVING LIVES SINCE 1946 When an ejection seat may represent a crew member’s last chance to survive, there can be no compromise. With over 70,000 ejection seats delivered to 93 air forces around the world, we offer a fully integrated escape system that satisfies the very latest in pilot operational capability and safety standards.
