Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation has awarded a contract to Goodrich Corporation to supply air data sensors, ice detectors and windshield heat controllers for the new Mitsubishi Regional Jet (MRJ) aircraft.

Goodrich’s flight-critical air data sensors includes aerodynamically compensated pitot-static probes, digital angle of attack sensors and total air temperature sensors.

The ice detectors advise flight crews of ice build-up for activation of the aircraft’s ice protection system.

The internally mounted windshield heat controllers will ensure the windshield remains free of condensation and ice, while the controllers will help to conserve power by regulating distribution .

Goodrich will deliver the first flight-test hardware in the middle of 2011.

The MRJ is a family of 70 to 90-seat, next-generation regional jets, which feature advanced aerodynamic design, noise analysis technologies and a game-changing engine.
