• New Avionics




• RCAF FWSAR

With the Collins

Aerospace Pro Line

Fusion , the C295

improves its already

good tactical capabilities.

This allows operators to

fulfil their mission with

maximum effectiveness

A New Standard in Avionics

®

• New and modern avionics: intuitive Human Machine

Interface with touchscreen controls

• Easier operation, reduced pilot workload

• Enhanced tactical operations, thanks to an enhanced

situational awareness

• Compliant with current and forthcoming Civil

and Military requirements


8

Intuitive HMI allowing

pilots to interact with what

they see

• Four high-resolution 14.1”

tactile displays

• Touch screen simplicity

• Graphical flight-planning

capability (waypoints

creation just by touching the

screen)

• Night Vision Goggle

compatible

Advanced Human Machine Interface

Bigger Screens

The new high resolution screens offer

double the screen area:

The systems and

technology incorporated

give the pilot the optimum

awareness that is key for

tactical flying

• Synthetic Vision System

(SVS)

• Overlaid Weather Radar

Information

• Terrain Awareness and

Warning Systems (TAWS)

• FITS Tactical Situation

Window and EO/IR video

The combination of the

Head-Up Display (HUD)

with the Enhanced Vision

System (EVS) provides a

modern solution that

greatly enhances pilots’

situational and terrain

awareness, especially in

tactical operations and

low-visibility landings and

low-level flights

• With a tactile interface for intuitive operation, provides new features such as the graphical creation and editing of search patterns

• Faster and more powerful processors, resulting in shorter start-up and booting sequences, reduced mission data up/download times, and higher reliability rates

The new dual-screen

consoles provide two

large 24” high-definition

displays, which greatly

enhance situational

awareness, providing an

independent tactical

picture on each display

and sensor window

• Prevents any debris or

gravel lifted by the nose

reach any impact-

sensitive area of the

aircraft belly, in

particular the radar

dome and the antenna

• Installed in the nose

landing gear strut

Gravel Deflector

Enables the operation of SAR aircraft in unpaved

or polluted airstrips near the area of operation
